One of her best productions yet. Smooth jazz vocals at its best, with
Lalahs unique sound. I look forward to her next cd!!!!

I purchased this cd in june.Since june I have purchased other cds, however,this cd is still in rotation in my cd player. Need i say more. This is a must have, If you want to feed your soul. Lalah has a soulful voice and lyrics that speak to you.


5 out of 5 stars Eloquent   January 7, 2009
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.

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!


3 out of 5 stars Not Feeling It....   December 18, 2008
I was expecting so much more from an obviously talented woman like Lalah Hathaway but I found myself bored by most of the tracks on this CD. I guess I'll try listening to it over & over at least 3 times & see if I can get into it...however, I highly doubt that my opinion of the CD will be changed.
