Over all, this album is a rich blend of disco funk brewed chilled-out-ness, like a post-party or hangover morning relaxing blend of songs.
Dave Lee (aka Jakatta) sets out a wonderful set of tracks that flow effortlessly here and without jarring the ride. The inclusion of vocalists Seal, Beth Hirsch, Ty, and Linda Clifford works a real treat alongside the carefully chosen samples.
Of course, the American Dream track and its piano line instantly gives us a huge highlight, and its regular nod from other tracks helps to transfer some of this admiration across the album. American Dream doesn’t stand alone here though, with My Vision, One Fine Day, and The Other World all sounding wonderful. There’s little here to pick holes in, but Feelin’ Blue does feel like it just about strikes in at the ‘it’s okay’ level.
This edition of the album was seamlessly blended together, and that works perfectly for such a (mostly) chilled out album – allowing it to flow on a journey through, ending with the ‘mega mix’ and alternate version with Seal. It’s definitely an album worth hearing.
