Eloquent:
All I can say is that Lalah did her thing on this cd. After hearing Lalah Hathaway on a cd with Joe Sample I decided to give her music a try, and I am really glad that I did. I personally enjoy the entire cd, my favorites are - That Was Then, Breathe, Tragic Inevitability, What Goes Around, Let Go, 1 Mile, For Always!!! If you are looking for Jazzy, Soulful, and just Great music - give this one a try.
Music for Inter Peace and Love!:
I was so delighted when I put this CD in my Bose music system, it was beautiful sound to my ears! The words in her songs are heart moving, and her voice is so sultry, and smoothing to your ears! I could not take it out of my music system,I played it over and over and yes,over! Get it, for the old sound of modern jazz, as well as love songs!
