5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Stunning!, December 1, 1999

Give me SOB anytime and I will thank you everytime. This lovely group has shown that they are a force to be reckon with in the music industry. Especially if one, as a Christian, born-again and spirit filled and loves good music wants to listen to music without necessarily listening to the filth on the street. This is IT! . From the second track to last (my favorite is the title track), the album is a must-listen to. Keep it up folks, even us folks down in Africa are solidly behind you.

Only about half of the songs on the group's fifth studio album are up to the group's standards ("Try", "Reconciliation", "Twenty Four & Back Again", "Rainbow", "Love Will change Things" and "Don't Be afraid to Dream"). The remaining songs, though enjoyable, lack the power and production values that one comes to expect from the multi-talented organization.

Thankfully, Sounds of Blackness rebounded with the recently released and much superior "Soul Symphony".

But, for fans, "Reconciliation" is still a necessary entry to the ever-developing and one-of-a-kind musical troupe.

I don't know why I didn't hear about this CD over & over again. Although I think SOB are at their best when they sing about God, they are also quite beautiful when singing about love & friendship. "Twenty four & back again" is as solid an anthem to friendship as I've heard. (Don't you wish there were more of them?) It doesn't quite measure up in my mind to "Evolution of Gospel," but then, almost nothing I've heard does. Went to the MLK Day concert in Minneapolis just after this was released , and I have to say that if you like music that makes your eyes tear up, your body bounce from side to side, and your brain think, you need to get to one of their concerts!
