Listener Reviews & Comments
When this release appeared in late 70's, I was at a personal nadir in my life. I would often play the tracks "Look to the Rainbow", "Could You Believe", or "Burst in with the Dawn" to think of better times ahead...which of course did indeed come! This man has an incredible wellspring of talent with his voice and its Armstrong or Fitzgerald-like ability to mimic an entire band, instrument by instrument. The whole recording is worth owning, song for song. In addition to the three I mentioned above, "So Long Girl" (with its driving rhythm), "Rainbow in Your Eyes" (soaring vocal energy), and the funky "You Don't See Me" also stand out. What really makes this album work is the fine band he toured with for these sessions, especially the keyboards and vibes. The overall sound compliments his voice famously. I've yet to hear Al Jarreau duplicate this flavor in any studio effort since. We Latins call it "Sabor". For those who are into great Jazz vocals, for that matter, great Jazz, you've got to put this one in...
