George at his very best. No question about it!!!!

"I must first say that you must be a REAL fan of smooth soul and Quiet Storm ballads if you are to enjoy and appreciate this CD. Narada Michael Walden provided George with some great songs ("Too Many Times", "Shiver", "Kisses In The Moonlight" and the title track) while the Kashif-penned and produced "Secrets In The Night" is simply sublime. Both Narada Michael Walden and Kashif were among the most in-demand R&B produers of the 1980s (they both also have jazz backgrounds) and pairing them with George made for a memorable album."

Far from being his best...

"Benson's long career has seen him doing excellent things and not so good ones. This album is to be sent into the second category. Actually, only two tracks are really worth it, "kisses in the moonlight", which he sometimes performs live, and the rythmic "shiver". That's it. Fortunately enough, Benson seems to have overcome difficult moments and his latest two cds (That's right, and Standing together) are great."
