As A Young Black Man I am mostly a Soul and R&B/Jazz/Blues listener.However, since i'm a musician myself I took it upon myselfTo try to widen my musical scope.I wanted to be a very well rounded musician so I started listening to styles of music that are outside what im used to.I bought this album on cassette by Billy Dean at the 99Cent store for a dollar and its probably one of the best buys ive ever made, , the other being Isaac Hayes The Polydor Years that I got from the music store for $8.00.I put This Billy Dean Cassette in my player not really expecting to beVery excited about what I was going to hear but..... Boy was I wrong.I love every song on this album but I keep "Fire In The Dark" on repeat and when I put a song on repeat it means I really like it.Im even going to buy the CD so I can add it to compilations that I make.The Music is Mellow and Mr. Deans voice is in Supreme Form as he Serenades the listener on a musical journey on this album from start to finish.Im saying this as a Musician I play good music so I know it when I hear itAnybody who dislikes or belittles this album should be fired , put up against a wall and hit repeatedly until the sense that got knocked out of their heads gets knocked back in.Im looking forward to spending my money on some more Billy Dean CD'sThis is one of the best albums I've ever heard. And coming from me that says a lot because there are precious few albums that I will say I like every song on.Extension Of A Man(Donny Hathaway) Groove-A-Thon(Isaac Hayes) - Here My Dear(Marvin Gaye) - Give Me The Reason(Luther Vandross) - Louder Than Words(Lionel Richie) - Here At The Mayflower(Barry Manilow) Etc.Purchasing This Album Would Not Be A Waste Of MoneyIt Will Be A Asset To Any Serious Music Lovers Music Collection.
