Incredible!

"Albums like this don't come along often. I'm impressed with the way Jam & Spoon has evolved, comparing their 1st album to this one. There's no comparison! These boys just put out so much of a rush for the mind, body & soul. Every track on this CD is just splendid, from start to finish. My very best friend bought this CD, nearer to the time when it was first released. I wasted too much time & ended up missing out on it. Seems this album is so rare & hard to find. Due to it being an import, it's extremely hard to get. But now that I have it, it's hard to put down.



I had to play the entire album 3 times to listen to everything, because there's just so much to hear. The song "VATA" with singer Shweta Shetty is just to die for. Dolores O'Riordan is another interesting vocalist in the song "MIRROR LOVER". Her thick, Irish accent is haunting, yet soothing...and far better than her normal "out of breath" style from the "Cranberries" CDs. There are 2 more songs which stand out among the rest. I'm referring to "NONE OF THIS" (sung by Xavier Naidoo). His voice is great. The song is very catchy. The other song I'm referring to is "BUTTERFLY SIGN" (sung by Plavka). Her voice is also stunning and has a very similar tone to Madonna's singing voice.

There's nothing but catchy tunes found on this CD. The CD is quite diverse and there's something for everyone. It's one of those albums you just have to rip onto a MiniDisc or MP3 player. Music like this doesn't come around often, and it surely beats the heck out of the trash bands & artists of today. I'm proud to add it to my ever-growing eclectic music collection.



For anyone who doesn't know who Shweta Shetty is.....she performed backup vocals on Sarah Brightman's extensive "HAREM WORLD TOUR". I assume she's singing in Arabic on this CD, but I'm not 100% sure. The song "VATA" really shows off her beautiful voice, and as soon as I first heard this song, I knew I had to have the CD. She also appears on "JUNOON" (track 14), matched up with Mike Romeo. What an interesting song!



Moving on, Jim Kerr appears on the album with the song "CYNICAL HEART". His voice hasn't changed since the 80's when he lead SIMPLE MINDS. It's nice to hear his voice as a collaboration on the album, because I grew up listening to his music. It would be nice to see or hear more of him on J&S's next CD.



Inside the liner notes booklet, are not only the lyrics, but also pictures of the singers plus pictures of Jam El Mar and Mark Spoon, themselves. These 2 guys are a great duo and I hope they will continue putting out incredible music such as this and their debut album.



As far as design concept is concerned, the packaging is great. The album is a 20 on a rating of 1 to 10. Take it from me.......get the album and be happy with it. You won't regret it! Highly recommended for music lovers of any age."
Butterfly Sign is a GREAT song

"I Simply would say that this album is a great collage of a lot of styles most of all POP-DANCE .



Simply Stunning the athmospear of MIRROR LOVER composed by Dolores O'Riordan (lead singer of ''The Cranberries'')



BUTTERFLY SIGN with Plavka on the vocal is another catchy great track. that explore the pop-dance sound.



The album has great background sounds and an incredible mastering - postProduction on the tracks , that in this case worth to buy and give a listen to it.
