"this album does nothing but expose the raw power and beauty in dino's voice. nearly every single track,in some way or another shows the intensity of dino's raspy masculine vocal capabilities. the song 'pink sky' is one of the best on the album. many of the later tracks are impressive as well. if you are fed up with commercialized r&b and want to experience music that you fall in love with because of its truth and the feelings behind it, begin with real unmolested soul, begin with this classic"

"The fellas have done it again! Just like fine wine, they keep on getting better with age. All the way from the first to the last track your left wanting more and more. Imitations of life takes you on that roller coaster of emotions impacted on every topic imaginable but this journey is not one that would be disappointing what so ever. You'ld be missing out if this cd was not playing in your favorite player. Imitations of Life is truly epic and the legacy of our dear Dino will live forever though his music. Their voices are crisp and smooth and the music will have your car or house bumpin'. We love you, H-Town!!!"

"From track one to the last each song is goooood! You get your money's worth on this cd! The best song on here is Pink Sky! Why in the world didn't it get any air play, I don't know. As much of garbage they play today on the radios this song was sung from the heart and you feel every word he says! If you really want to listen to good music buy this record!
