5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent work, August 2, 2005

So to say, Philip Bailey is one of the greatest talent voice singers ever since forming the group of today along w/ co-founder Maurice White and others as Earth, Wind & Fire. I'm blessed I have this. 'Cuz Philip can sing your heart when he's singing. He can do it everything- jazz, blues, gospel, R&B, hip-hop, etc. all right here on 1 disc. I recommend u checkout the rest of his other albums as well. 'Cuz 1 thing I had in mind that he is a devotee to all different types of music incl. the legendary Miles Davis which I read off the cover of this CD. All the songs are outstanding and mostly a good album to have if u luv Miles, Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye, John Coltrane, Grover Washington, among others. Deeply a Must.

...but this is still one great cd, and i've not stopped playing it since it was purchased. This was actually my husband's choice...i wouldn't have thought to pick it up, but i think i'm enjoying it more he is. This is a really tasteful cd, and although many tunes aren't what most folks would call true jazz, it's mellow, "night-sy" music you can chill to. I know Phil could have really displayed his vocal range a bit more on this cd, and i regret to say he wasn't feeling very adventurous that way, but it's still just plain good music. Tracks 2,6, and 7 are my favs, but this is one cd you can just let play (okay maybe with the exception of track 1)...no major skipping over this track and that track. "Unrestrained", track 6, is a wonderfully romantic song, written by Phil's son, Sir...seems that talent runs in the family...the lyrics aren't flimsy or unimaginative, but tender and passionate...very good writing on Sir's part, and i can appreciate that. This may be one to surprise you, if you pick it up...i enjoyed it highly.
