"Being a bit of a music snob, I found myself viewing this album with immense sketicism. 'Ball players can't play music. He's just trying to get over on his name.' I couldn't have been more wrong with Tisdale's Decisions. The selections go from sultry, to soulful, to soothing, to downright sexy. He never lets up on the listener, changing genre within the jazz arena like a music chameleon. This is without a doubt one of the best 20 jazz albums I've ever consumed aurally. Highly recommended - should be a part of any try afficianado's collection!"
Folks, this man is for real!

"The former NBA star's transition from basketball to music is as smooth as the material on this record. With "Decisions," Wayman proves that he definitely has what it takes to thrive in the music business. Much of the material on this album is more smooth jazz than what was whipped up on "Power Forward" and "In the Zone," which had more R&B and fusion flavors. There are even some Latin American grooves in track 4.For those of you who think ball players can't play music (yes, Shaquille O'Neal's attempt at rap was embarrassing for us all), give "Decisions" a spin. It is an excellent album and would be a perfect way to set the mood for a romantic evening with your loved one. A must-have for any fan of contemporary jazz."
Wayman plays from the soul

"man...I can't say enough about this album. I've had this album for a few years now along with everything else released by Tisdale. I absolutely love this album. There are about 5 smooth jazz songs in my entire collection that can bring my hectic world to a soothing, fuzzy, warm, anesthetic, calm. "Fell in Love" is one of those. The Everette Harp/Tisdale collaboration is outstanding. By the way, "Better Days" the Harp/Tisdale collaboration on the title track of Harp's album is also one of the those magical five songs. Truly spirit-lifting music."
Very good easy-listening music

"Tisdale has a very smooth flow in his music. I have enjoyed listening to all of his cd's in the past. I hope that he continues to pump out the smooth jazz sounds. It is a welcome change from today's rap and pop music."
