4.0 out of 5 stars Incognito, "Who Needs Love" Jun 21 2004
Format:Audio CD
I've been a fan of Incognito for the longest. I even have their rare first album from 1981, "Jazz Funk". Although I still miss Maysa Leak (she brought so much to the group during most of the '90s), this album is still solid, which is no surprise because Bluey remains the mastermind. My favorite songs are 'Don't Be a Fool' and 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head'. Don't even try to categorize this group because they've been blending R&B, soul, house and jazz together for years. And fans, their new album, "Adventures in Black Sunshine" is on its way! Check out www.incognito.org.uk for more info.

4.0 out of 5 stars Getting Into The Groove April 7 2004
By Marc200
Format:Audio CD
Over the years, Incognito has benefited greatly from the herculean vocal talents of Maysa Leak and Jocelyn Brown. That is probably why "100 Degrees and Rising" (featuring neither Maysa or Jocelyn) is their weakest effort and "No Time Like The Future" (featuring both divas) is their strongest. Bluey's grooves can become monotonous -- all groove and no substance -- without a distinctive voice to anchor the proceedings. So "Who Needs Love" (featuring neither Jocelyn nor Maysa) contains a few surprises. The highlight is STONE COLD HEART a smooth samba of a summer breeze that is capped with Joy Malcolm's aching vocal. Up-and-comer Kelli Sae adds spice to both the funky, Curtis Mayfield-esque PEOPLE AT THE TOP and the retro-soulful DON'T BE A FOOL. Likewise, Joy Rose livens up both CAN'T GET YOU OUT OF MY HEAD, with a neo-soul swagger similar to Jill Scott, and the club-stomper MORNING SUN which has already found its way onto several dance music compilations. Overall, "Who Needs Love" is very listenable and makes a strong case for Incognito as being more than the sum of its parts.

4.0 out of 5 stars 'Wish that I could add one-half star more! Mar 19 2004
Format:Audio CD
Like its name implies, the group Incognito blends so many musical styles that it's next to impossible to categorize its music. Songs on this album run the gamut from dance ("Morning Sun", "Where Love Shines") to bossa nova ("Stone Cold Heart") to quiet storm ("IF You Want My Love", the seductive "Don't Be A Fool"). Fans of true jazz may delight in the neo-sound of "Byrd Plays" and "Blue (I'm Still Here With You").

The album's highlight is arguably its shortest track, the bonus remix of "Can't Get You Out of My Head", a really funky little ditty that begs for an extended version.

I don't know "WHO NEEDS LOVE".

I do know that the music world needs more of the caliber of Incognito.
