5.0 out of 5 stars Trip The Night Fantastic, April 3, 2003

This review is from: Trip the Night Fantastic (Audio CD)

We first heard Soul Ballet on a local modern jazz station about two years ago. The first time we heard their music, we were mesmerized, to say the least. We immediately went out and bought their other three albums, but until just this week, were unable to find this one. The other reviews here are on the money in that their music is sexy, sensuous, relaxing, and most definitely fit the Saturday night with the lights down criteria. Unlike other artists, we never tire of listening to Soul Ballet. What a shame they have so few CD's to offer. A very distinct sound all it's own, which is very unusual in this day and time.

This is my first sampling of Soul Ballet and I must say I am highly impressed.

It's a mixture of jazz with a smoother groove than many artists. There is a sense of truth behind it, hard to explain but this is a fabulous CD. U Desire Her, Romantique and Sashay are excellent. The other songs are great as well including Illicit Sisters and Tell Me Your Mine. Both have vocals, which I normally don't like in a smooth jazz CD but they are tastefully done and subtle but work with the music unlike many smooth jazz artists with vocals. I am on my second listening (just got it today -- thank you Amazon!) and it's certain to be a classic CD for your collection.

The above originally written on June 19, 2001 and I am still loving this CD. I was absolutely correct, despite it only being the first day I owned it, it's a classic in my collection.

Very much recommended. (October 17, 2005)

This is an excellent contemporary jazz album, smooth with a bit of funk. Unlike many albums, these tracks don't all sound alike - good variety. I find this to be good energizing music either as background while I'm working or just to relax. It's definitely worth the purchase!
