The extremely talented Pop artist Donell Jones has released him latest CD on the LaFace recording label, entitled Journey Of A Gemini.
It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that's exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn't a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.
Journey Of A Gemini has a pleasantly varied, mix of 15 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly gifted artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are him own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.
Overall Journey Of A Gemini is outstanding from beginning to end. One of those CDs that after a few listens the songs are just etched into your memory. A must have for the Pop fan. Really spectacular from beginning to end.
While this entire album is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 2 - Better Start Talking, track 6 - Potrait Of A Woman, and track 15 - I'm Gonna Be.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Special Girl. What a nice track!
