"this - arrested development's second album - was largely overlooked, their debut '3 years...' kinda got played into the ground. nonetheless, if you like arrested development at all, this is by far the superior of their two studio efforts. you can usually order it used for like $1, at that price, its worth checking out."
I can't believe ...

"... that mine is the first review of this album. I bought it second hand some years ago was was, much to my surprise, immediately blown away by the sounds. I believe the critics were not crazy 'bout it first off becasue of the excellence of their debut. However, I think it stands out as a better record. The cd is worth it alone for 'Africa's inside me'. Currently out of print - amazingly - grab it if you see it in a bargain bin - you will not be disappointed!!"
Powerful!

"A lot of people didn't respond to this follow-up album, but in my opinion, it is every bit as good as A.D's debut.
"Africa's Inside Me" is my personal anthem, and a truly profound song.
The band is tight and Speech has crafted some awesome songs here.
Again, how many bands include a spiritual consultant like Baba Oje? They respect where they came from, which is why they know where they're going, and when you listen with your heart, you will too."
Grab it if you can!!

"Some of the best and the brightest! Right on politics with a real and funky beat. Positive messages and beautiful harmonies - this is rare! Grab it!"
