Nicely produced and put together, ELLIOTT YAMIN dabbles in a variety of styles, including adult contemporary, retro soul, smooth R&B, and soft rock, but Yamin's strong, soulful vocals take center stage. The mishmash of genres makes the album somewhat uneven, but fortunately Yamin's singing--which sounds better here than ever, and is the reason his fans will buy this release--is enough to compensate for any inconsistencies. | Producer: Derek Bramble; Espionage; Josh Abraham; Mike Mangini | Engineer: Karl Egsieker; Ryan Williams |

5 of 5 Elliott's Voice Thursday, April 12, 2007 D from Seattle, WA
I always love his voice so I didn't think twice about purchasing the CD. The voice is still the same and I'm glad I bought it. I will say that I think his song writing is geared toward a younger audience (I'm not so young), however I still enjoy listening to him. Nice first release. I think as he matures as a artist I'll enjoy him even more. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 sooooo.. smooth Tuesday, April 03, 2007 Rebekah Magee from Sandusky Ohio
I love Elliott's voice it is so smooth. He delivers every note with soul. This cd will be great for everyone and it really showcases his talent. I will definitely be a fan for a long time to come. I know as time goes on he will mature it to a very sucessful artist. I will definitely download this to my ipod. GO ELLIOT GO!!! Was this review helpful?
