HoJo steps up another level!, February 20, 2000
This review is from: People (Audio CD)
When "Live Acoutsic America" was released, I was amazed that this viable artist I had heard growing up was so talented that he had taken the energy from the keyboard and put it to piano. I thought it impossible to out do that album. Now, with "People", we get a fresh, new sound and we are taken on yet another ride into HoJo's better place.. with a rich, full sound of a band. I attended his concert and was thoroughly impressed, not just with the new material, but that he had transformed his previous hits into new versions, all of which were incredible. I give 5 Stars for taking a wonderful chance at a different sound, and for sticking with an overall positive and complete, balanced sound and image that one could only expect from Howard Jones.

People Has Its Say, October 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: People (Audio CD)
This is Howard Jones' finest hour without doubt! I have enjoyed every single album that Howard's released but this one just seems that bit different - there are definitely no songs like Automaton on here!!! I would agree with a previous reviewer in that "Not One Of The Lonely Tonight" is just such a gorgeous song, as is "You're the Buddah", "Sleep My Angel" and "If You Love". But that doesn't exempt all the other songs as they are all very impressive. The lyrics, as well as the music, are mature but not in the "In The Running" sense; this music comes from deeper within and is far more accessible. I love putting the album on 'cause people often say, "Who's that? That sounds really good," and then I tell them and they say, "What? That's not Howard Jones, no way!" Yep! Welcome to the nineties...

Things have not only gotten better, People is the best!!!, September 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: People (Audio CD)
The music and lyrical content of this album is award winning. Howard Jones has not only written songs about love, faith and hope, he leads the music industry today by setting a master example of how an artist with talent and a passion for his work his fans and his family can accomplish greatness. Each song pulls at your soul establishing powerful relationships of reflection and living. "Let the people have their say" "Tommorrow is now" and "Not one of the lonely tonight" are increadible contributions to musics legacy. People is worth every penny.
