5.0 out of 5 stars A Lost Gem: Sky High by Jigsaw, October 25, 2005

Originally I was a little hesitant about getting this one. I heard of these guys via their huge top 10 single, "Sky High," other than that, I thought that they were merely a one hit wonder, with a really cool and different sound, but please don't be fooled, this album is certainly worth buying. I took a chance and now I consider it one of my all time favorites!

Ahead of it's time indeed, it was originally released in 1975, which must have sounded very different for those times. A little hints of Disco, but Disco hadn't quite hit the seen hard core yet. Donna Summer had just put out "Love To Love You Baby", which really was just really 'Funk' music with a very danceable groove, so it sort of has that pre-disco sound to it. Very soulful pop is how I would (try to) describe its sound.

I'll bet, besides listening to Elton John, Queen's Freddie Mercury and Stevie Wonder, Wham's George Michael might have been listening to this one for inspiration when he was recording Make It Big. I hear hints of Wham all over it.

Other than that, some of the standout tracks are "Lost And Found," "In Between The Loving," "One Step Too Far," and the very infectious "Tell Me Why." Nice Bonus tracks, too, but they don't quite measure up to the original album tracks. Whatever the case, it might be a little pricey, but it will be well worth your money. This is truly a Lost Gem.
