| Unplugged is the latest Pop CD put out by the richly | | | | Theme. Good stuff! |
| talented Maxwell who once again has delivered a | | | | Unplugged Release Notes: |
| brilliant collection of tracks. I'm confident Maxwell fans, | | | | Maxwell originally released Unplugged on July 15, 1997 |
| and Pop fans alike will be pleased with this one. | | | | on the Columbia label. |
| Unfortunately, it's not everyday that I get a CD from | | | | CD Track List Follows: |
| an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to | | | | 1. The Suite Urban Theme (The Hush) |
| from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two | | | | 2. Mello: Sumthin (The Hush) |
| that I just can't force myself to get through. Not at all | | | | 3. Lady Suite, The |
| the case with Unplugged. Every track is enjoyable and | | | | 4. This Woman's Work |
| was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish. | | | | 5. Whenever Wherever Whatever |
| One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the | | | | 6. Ascension (Don't Ever Wonder) |
| way all of the participating artists seem to be really | | | | 7. Gotta Get: Closer |
| enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall | | | | Unplugged Album Notes Personnel: Maxwell (vocals); G |
| presentation and you've got one of Maxwell's most | | | | Mo (guitar); Gloria Agostini (harp); Gerald Tarack, |
| impressive releases ever. | | | | Matthew Raimondi, Veronica Salas (violin); Susan |
| I give Unplugged my highest recommendation. It just | | | | Poliacik (cello); Andre Roberson (saxophone); Russell |
| plain belongs in any serious music collectors collection | | | | Gunn (trumpet); Darrell Smith (Fender Rhodes electric |
| regardless of genre preference. | | | | piano, Hammond B-3 organ); Michael Neal (bass); Kerry |
| While the entire album is really very good some of my | | | | Griffin (drums); Angel Luis Figueroa (percussion); |
| favorites are track 4 - This Woman's Work, track 5 - | | | | Michael Dickerson, La Tina Webb, Khaliq (background |
| Whenever Whereever Whatever, and track 7 - Gotta | | | | vocals). |
| Get: Closer | | | | Recorded live at The Brooklyn Academy Of Music, |
| My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in | | | | Brooklyn, New York on May 7, 1997. |
| "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - The Suite Urban | | | | |
