CD ReviewsDidn't get the Credit it deserved. Derek Johnson | United Kingdom | 08/04/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "This 1990 release is a concept album that deals with the day in the life of a black community activist Lakim. Most of the songs are separated by spoken interludes that build up a picture of the man, and his mission, and the struggle he faces. Blaze were/are predominantly a garage band, and thus the first five songs leave me a little bit cold. Blazes wear their influences broadly on their sleeves, which might be a good or bad thing, according to your point of view. Thus you have Curtis Mayfield,(Lover Man)Stevie Wonder(All That I Should Know), Donnie Hathaway/Marvin Gaye(I Wonder) sounding tracks. This was woefully overlooked at the time, as Motown was going through a hard time in the 90s, and to my mind did not promote this excellent CD. Get this before its deleted."
