Glenn Jones has one of the most fabulous voices of all time. He's right there with Luther, Marvin and the rest. Unfortunately he gets ignored for much less talented singers. If you'd just like to hear a fantastic voice sing fantastic songs, buy this. You definitely won't be disappointed.

If you're looking for old school/r&b or soul music...You're Sweet, You're Fine, You're Everything...need I say more. This song was worth the entire purchase of this CD. Glenn's voice is gorgeous on this song. The entire CD is good and there are no fillers. Give it a listen. You won't be disappointed.

Most people know Glenn Jones from the early 90s song "Here I Go Again," which showcases his beautiful voice and is included here as a "classic". Those fans and fans of Classic R&B are the only ones I see buying this CD. That's a shame because it is better than some of the reworked Classic albums that have been put out by more established stars.

1. Another Sad Love Song (Toni Braxton): 6/10. He left out all the earnestness that Toni put into this song. It is middle of the road/you'll forget after hearing. The only thing he does better than Toni is ENUNCIATE.
   
   
2. Anniversary (Toni, Tony, Toné): 10/10. I absolutely HATED this song when it came out. I only listened to this so that I could provide an opinion for my review. I was pleasantly surprised!!! Glenn Jones has made me not only forget the insipid version performed by Raphael and crew, but he has shown how a reworking of a song can be to the song's advantage.
   
   
3. Where Is the Love? (Roberta Flack/Donny Hathaway): 10/10. This is the song where you wake up and say "Did I just hear that?" Glenn and Genobia Jeter Jones (his wife) kick butt and take names on this one. When she comes in for her verse, she makes you want to know where her CD is. You will love both this version and Roberta and Donny's.
   
   
4. Here I Go Again (Glenn Jones): 8/10 [if you've never heard it]; 6/10 [if you have]. Seeing that the people who know Glenn Jones know this song, I consider this a wasted slot. If he wanted to do something daring, he should have put a new twist on one of his contemporary's songs: maybe Debarge's All this Love or Tony Terry's With You.
   
   
5. My First Love (René & Angela) 7/10. After hearing Mr. and Mrs. Jones on Where Is the Love?, this should have been a duet slam dunk. It wasn't. Glenn could probably sing circles around René Moore and Genobia has a distinctive voice that should have been able to keep up with Ms. Angela Winbush, so WHY, WHY is this song so blah. Producers??? Consumers: Go find the original.
   
   
6. Reaching for the Sky (Peabo Bryson) 8/10. Just as good as the original.
   
   
7. You're Sweet, You're Fine, You're Everything (Tomorrow's Promise): 10/10. I had never heard of this song before and have only heard a clip of the original. This is a gorgeous song, and I am glad that Mr. Jones introduced me to it.
   
   
8. Show and Tell (Al Wilson). 5/10. First let me say, I love the original version of this song. I think this reworking has the same issue as Glenn's version of Another Sad Love Song. He has taken all of the angst, earnestness, urgency out of the song. Marked down a point because of the previous song.
   
   
9. Signed, Sealed, Delivered (Stevie Wonder): 8/10. Funky! Thank goodness because this song has been done to death!
   
   
10. I Wish He Didn't Trust Me So Much (Bobby Womack): 8/10. This song could have been a 10, however, the arrangement should have leaned closer to the spare/acoustic side - Glenn puts the emotion needed into this song and his voice is great.

This CD is only 45 minutes. I downgraded it one star because of that.

Upon intial inspection, the average listener will think this is yet another classics cd with nothing fresh going on.

First and foremost, Glenn has been a highly underrated singer. All his career we know he was in the background, you always marveled at his vocal acuity, yet somehow he just couldn't seem to "get over."

Notwithstanding, this is a beaaaaaaaaautiful cd. Glenn indeed breathes new life in some timeless classics. He even tightened up "Show & Tell" a song, I wasn't that crazy about when first released but this is yet a perfect example of Glenn breathing freshness into some wonderful R&B classics. Kudos goes to his female partner on 'Where is the Love" and "My First Love." These guys are saaaaangin' ya'll, okay?

I really feel good about giving a guy who has been out there in the trenches for quite a while his flowers now. He has managed to present a wonderful project that he can be proud of and that you will enjoy for years to come!
