"HEART & SOUL IS BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST EFFORTS THE WINANS HAVE PRODUCED...WHY NOT ONE TRACK HAS EVER MADE IT TO THEIR BEST OF COMPILATIONS BAFFLES ME TO THIS DAY, THIS GEM OF A CD WAS ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 1995-BUT STILL SOUNDS CURRENT TODAY.THIS IS CONTEMPORARY GOSPEL AT IT'S BEST -I CALL IT RHYTHM AND GOOD NEWS-THIS IS THE MUSIC THAT SHOULD BE PLAYED IN THE HOUSEHOLD, IN FRONT OF THE CHILDREN-AT A PICNIC-WHILE WASHING THE CAR ETC.-IT IS UPLIFTING, INSPIRATIONAL, BOTH THE PRODUCTION AND SINGING IS TOP NOTCH- THE HARMONIC OPENER "PARADISE" TAKES YOU ON THAT FANTASTIC VOYAGE, WE ALL NEED TO GO ON EVERY NOW AND THEN, THE VOCAL PERFORMANCES ARE SENSATIONAL!-"HEART AND SOUL" IS A MELODIC AND UPBEAT TOUR DE FORCE THAT WILL HAVE YOU BOPPING YOUR HEAD AND SNAPPING YOUR FINGERS. "COUNT IT ALL JOY" MAKES YOU DO JUST THAT-THE HEAVY SYNTHSIZED PRODUCTION SHINES ON THIS GEM...."YEAH, YEAH, YEAH" IS AWESOME. THE AMAZING REMAKE OF "THE QUESTION IS" WILL GIVE YOU CHILLS. THIS CD IS PACKED WITH GEMS -JUST ABOUT EVERY CUT IS A WINNER-EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS QUINCY JONES/BARRY HANKERSON HELPED PUT THE MIDAS TOUCH TO THIS PROJECT....IF YOU DON'T HAVE THIS CD IN YOUR COLLECTION..GET IT NOW WHILE IT'S STILL AVAILABLE-IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR CONTEMPORARY GOSPEL, SEARCH NO FURTHER-THIS CD WILL BE THE PERFECT INGREDIENT FOR YOUR HEART & SOUL."
