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, with each song standing tall on it's own.

From The Soul Of Man is a pleasantly varied, mix of 14 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly talented artist. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

Overall From The Soul Of Man is a solid release. Quite possibly Kenny Lattimore's best to date. Really sensational from beginning to end. If you're even mildly into Pop music you'll enjoy this album.

While the entire album is really very good some of my favorites are If I Lose My Woman - track 3, Just Can't Get Over You - track 5, and All My Tomorrows - track 11.

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1, Days Like This. Good stuff!
