After six years of touring and recording as a duo with his wife Chante Moore, Kenny Lattimore makes a stunning return as a solo artist with his new album, Timeless. Influenced by traditional R&B, jazz, funk, and gospel, Lattimore has become one of today's leading black male vocalists, known for his passionate, soulful and intense, yet subtle style. Lattimore puts his unique stamp on a diverse collection of classics including: "You Are My Starship," The Beatle's hit "And I Love Her" and Jeff Buckley's "Everybody Here Wants You".

Customer Rating:      Summary: Timeless Masterpiece is what he should have called this. Comment: Kenny Lattimore latest offering is nothing short of brilliant in my opinion. He surely did accomplish his goal of recording covers that sound like brand new songs. If your ear isn't familiar with some of the tunes that he has on here then you are in for a treat. Out of all the covers that I've heard artist do, this is by far the best that I've heard from an established artist. He brings his own style to already classic songs and the music that accompanies him is excellent. I can listen to this cd and not feel as if he is covering someone else's tune. I have all of his music and I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this is by far his best music.
Customer Rating:      Summary: 3.5 Stars Comment: Props to Kenny Lattimore for making a CD of well-known and not so well-known cover songs. When I heard his rendition of Norman Connors' You Are My Starship, I was hooked. Then when I actually gave the entire CD a listen, I wasn't disappointed. Kenny's forte is the ballads, but he's no slouch on the up-tempo stuff. I don't really care for his take on And I Love Her and Something (maybe it's the arrangements moreso than his vocals). I do like It Ain't No Use and That's The Way Love Is, but he works the stuffing out of Everybody Here Wants You, Come Down In Time, and Undeniably. The other songs are worthy as well. Ok, so worthy may not be a fair description - Kenny does his thing on Ain't No Way, Giving Up, and I Love You More Than Words Can Say. Aretha, Donny, and Otis are smiling.
This is a CD that new school adults can enjoy, if only for it's "getting your groove on" factor. Old heads, like me will applaud it for being music that we can actually listen to and understand and for the vocal quality. Older heads - I don't know. Go 'head on, Kenny - looking oh, so fabulous on the cover. Keep doing what you do!
Customer Rating:      Summary: BEAUTIFUL CD Comment: I love this CD. It has an old school flavor and a few remakes but it is the bomb. Songs number 2 and 3 are now officially "my jams". Kenny Lattimore has done it again.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Classy...Smooth...Soulful Comment: Thanks for bringing "grown folks" music back! This is not just another CD full of remakes but Kenny does a great job in giving us truly timeless music. My favorites include: "And I Love Her", "Everybody Here Wants You", and "Givin' Up". Kenny's interpretation of "It Ain't No Use" shows he's a Stevie fan in addition to the upbeat "That's the Way Love Is". Really good music for the mature audience. Keep up the great work, Kenny.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Timeless....A Classic Comment: This one's definitely one to have in your collection. It's a classic. Kenny does a wonderful job on these covers. I like the Elton John cover and Stevie Wonder's. 5/5 Rating.
