On that latter track, the silken-voiced balladeer intones "it's hard to breathe without you, girl, and baby, that's a fact" with an earthen, vulnerable sincerity that typifies every McKnight composition. It's that mature connection to his songs that places McKnight in the category of the finest contemporary R&B crooners. He drives that point home on "Grown Man Business," as he touts the virtues of the reliable, refined man over the sweetest of soul beats. Brian McKnight has been turning heads since he was in his teens, and as a thirtysomething on GEMINI, he is at the top of his game.

Those born under Gemini, the sign of the twins, are thought of, in astrological terms, as unpredictable, complex creatures. Thus, it is fitting that Brian McKnight would dub his 2005 record GEMINI, as the ever-versatile singer/songwriter plays a dapper chameleon here. The introduction finds McKnight toying with bluesy doo-wop before setting his dulcet tones into the contemporary R&B tune "What We Do Here," a seduction number out of the book of Jodeci. On "Stay," he dons a vocal-jazz persona rivaling Al Jarreau, while the smooth single "Everytime You Go Away" sports a bass groove straight out of the 1980s.

Personnel include: Brian McKnight (vocals, keyboards); Juvenile (rap vocals); Tyron Chase (guitar); Chris Lofton (bass guitar); Prescott Ellison (drums).

3 stars Average Album
I've got all of Brian Mcknight's LP's and as always, he comes up yet again with a decent album. It's an album u can listen to without skippin, but in my opinion there really isn't a standout track like "Anytime", "Back at One" or "All Night Long" which in turn leads me to give it 3 stars.

1 star His Worst CD EVER
His Music has inspired me.I have admired him, I RESPECT HIM and Love his music. But This album has been A LET DOWN... It has not got anything like "Anytime, 6,8,12, Show Me The Way Back To Your Heart, Someday, Someway, Somehow..." Im SOOO Disapointed. I pre- ordered th album without hesitacion but that was big mistake. THINK TWICE OR HEAR IT FIRST BEFORE BUYING IT.

5 stars Brian's Best
After purchasing Brian McKnights Greatest Hits I thought that was the best of Brian. Then I purchased this CD and I am very very pleased with this. Brian McKnight did an excellent job on the CD. Listening to this kind of gets you in the "mood" for some good old fashion relaxing. I am definitely glad that I purchased this CD. YOU will too!!

5 stars Brilliant
Brian never seems to amaze a fan like myself because every song, every albumn is always better and sweeta (jamaica slang). But to put things together like he has always done more than a trailblazer. Keep up the good work.

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD  (2002)

Gemini
CD $6.79  4.3 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood ...

Anthony Hamilton Comin' From Where I'm From CD  (2003)

Gemini
CD $9.55  4.8 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
COMIN' FROM WHERE I'M FROM was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album. "Comin' From Where I'm From" was nominated for Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance and for Best R&B Song. Anthony Hamilton grew up in North Carolina, caught the eye of record companies, and released a major-label record in 1997, XTC, which was critically lauded, but mostly forgotten and quickly out-of-print. Following this setback, Hamilton hung around the music biz, working on his songwriting and background vocals, until his big break came in 2002, singing the hook for the Nappy Roots hit "Po' Folks." The music on his second album, COMIN' FROM WHERE I'M FROM, transcends his rise-to-fame backstory. Hamilton is a soul singer in the truest sense of the phrase, a crooner with heart from the school of Curtis Mayfield, Bill Withers, and Teddy Pendergrass, as well as an intense songwriter on par with all of the above. The album features the vocalist standing as tall on more conventional modern R&B numbers like "I Tried" as on Philly throwbacks like "Better Days" and the darker ...

Tesla Into The Now CD  (2004)

Gemini
CD $8.49  4.5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
Unfairly labeled a hair-metal band, Tesla was always closer to the spirit of vintage 1970s hard rock. When the group released 1994's BUST A NUT, grunge rock was in full swing, and the Sacramento quintet subsequently took their curtain call, keeping busy with low-profile side projects. Testing the waters in 2000, Tesla launched a successful reunion tour, proving ...

John Legend Get Lifted CD  (2004)

Gemini
CD $9.89  4.6 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Six years after cutting his musical teeth as a teen, tickling the ivories on the classic Lauryn Hill single "Everything Is Everything," John Stephens popped up everywhere in 2004, going by the bold name of John Legend. His ubiquity was unsurprising, since he was taken under the wing of Kanye West, the year's breakout success, who tabbed Legend "the future of hip-hop." It's an interesting label for a man whose elegant voice and schooled songwriting conjures up Bill Withers and Al Green, but sometimes the future intersects with the past in a manner transcending revival. Legend drops his debut, GET LIFTED, into the center of the ...
