When Lou Rawls returned to Blue Note, he was given creative carte blanche to cut the kind of albums he'd made in the 1960s and '70s. This meant a return to recording jazzy standards, blues covers and sophisticated, yet soulful R&B. There were examples of all these styles on this 1990 album, but it lacked either the big name guest stars who participated on At Last or the same relaxed and informal air. Rawls still sounded confident and assured, but the production and material weren't as demanding or accomplished. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
