A mellow album featuring a supple vocal and smooth R&B tracks.
The album features a calm groove and soft vocals, as well as mellow R&B that alternates between slow and mid-tempo. The clean vocals and understated arrangements make it an easy-to-listen-to piece.
Glenn Jones's smooth voice naturally comes to the forefront. The texture of his voice is carefully handled, and the extension of his phrases and subtle fluctuations are conveyed honestly, with a sense of calm. The lack of flashy embellishments allows the quality of his vocals to be heard directly, and the transitions between mid and slow tempos are natural and effortless. The reason this is considered one of his masterpieces is because of this easy-to-listen-to, voice-centric approach, and it is a gentle R&B piece where you can see his expression just by letting yourself go with the flow.
