This is a richly flavorful album that showcases the artistry and talent that Jimmy Lewis, a master of southern soul music, has cultivated.
Jimmy Lewis, who has also done a great deal of work as a composer and producer, brings to the forefront the blues/soul sensibility he has cultivated throughout his career on this album, which is packed with his warm vocals and a sound deeply rooted in the South.
Jimmy Lewis has been active as a songwriter and producer for many years, and "Totally Involved" strongly captures his essence as a singer, transcending his titles. His vocals aren't flashy, but they have a solid core and warmth that stems from his Southern roots, creating a texture that naturally connects with elements of blues and soul. The songs are primarily mid-tempo, and their appeal lies in the cohesiveness that combines his restraint as a singer with the structural ability of a composer. Rather than striving for a flashy hit, the album feels like a careful tracing of his roots, and evokes the years he has accumulated as a songwriter.
