(3.5 Stars) A Good 'Morning' Despite The Occasional Clouds Here And There

Most everybody remembers the R&B duo Groove Theory back in the 90s. Songs like "Tell Me" and "Baby Luv" commanded the airwaves. Nowadays, Amel Larrieux goes the independent route with a solo career minus her former partner Bryce Wilson. Her best solo record was Infinite Possibilities, her first release that wet the appetites of her loyal listeners. Her last album Bravebird did much the same, but was the first of her independent efforts and didn't do much for her ongoing career. Even with the drawbacks of less promotion and little press from being on a small indie label, Amel goes forward with her latest album Morning. Although not as great as her first solo album, Morning is a decent enough to check out if you're a longtime fan.

It's Always Morning

i couldn't wait to get my Morning c.d. i own all of her c.d.'s and i like all of them, but Morning is by far my favorite. she is a talented songstress as well as lyricist. the words to these songs touch me so deeply. Unanswered Questions, Earn my Affections, Weary, Trouble, Gills and Tails; it's like i've been in all those places before. thank you for being so talented.

I love this album!

I have to say that I love this album, especially the song "Earn My Affections." The beat is simple, but has some serious funk to it. And I can definitely appreciate her vocals....all the way down to the end where it just gets down right rediculous. Yes, yes I Love it.
