"Jon Lucien's voice is so rich, so resonant, he could bring tears to your eyes singing the phone book. This album is like a "best of" compilation, each song will be your favorite, until you hear the next. Not one track is wasted.If you like lush, sensous jazz vocals, you must give this disk a listen. You will become addicted as did I."

"Lucien's voice has never been better, and whether singing an original (Title Track)or a standard ("But Beautiful"), he takes the high road, making romance seem noble, rather than sappy or selfish. He sings with a graciousness that give his songs strength, and his rich baritone voice is endlessly easy on the ears. His tribute to Oprah Winfrey on "How About You" is playful and sweet, and if you don't lose at least one tear when listening to "But Beautiful", then you need help in the romance department."
SENUOUS AND SENATIONAL FROM START TO FINISH
