Pretty Decent.......2007-06-30

Actually I thought I already reviewed this ablum but I will give it another shot.
I brought this album because someone told me to and I loved the first song but couldn't really follow the rest. He had some remakes of some old songs (or atleast it sound that way). I gave him 3 starts for effort. I think he has alot of potential if he could be more original.

Product Description

Gordon Chambers is a Soul Music veteran, but is principally known as a songwriter. Over the past dozen years the Jamaican born Chambers has penned tunes for a virtual Who's Who of modern urban adult contemporary singers, including Whitney Houston, Carl Thomas, Stephanie Mills, Gladys Knight, Gerald LeVert and Phyllis Hyman. He also earned a songwriting Grammy Award in 1995 for Anita Baker's I Apologize. Most recently he wrote the smash hit Gotta Go Solo for Patti LaBelle and Ron Isley. In addition to his work with other artists, he has been involved with a number of New York youth organizations, including the Bay Shore Schools Arts Education Fund and Boys Harbor. In 2004, after years of supporting others, Chambers decided to put his own career as a singer up front and began working on his debut album with noted producers Barry Eastmon (who co-wrote I Apologize), Troy Taylor and Brian Bacchus. Other artists also helped in the process, including Carl Thomas, Roy Hargrove and Glenn Lewis. The result of their effort is the CD Introducing Gordon Chambers. Introducing Gordon Chambers is an excellent debut album that successfully straddles the Urban Adult Contemporary/Smooth Jazz fence while resurrecting some of the pleasant grooves of mid- 80s nuevo soul. Chambers shows his varied influences throughout the disc, including Marvin Gaye (Can I Touch You There), Glenn Lewis (Never Fall In Love), Jeffrey Osborne (The Only One) and David Sanborn (I Miss You Most) (he even borrows a bridge from British band Spandau Ballet on Slippin Away), and uses them to create a smooth sonic amalgamation around his strong compositions. As a singer, Chambers has a pleasant, rather unassuming tenor voice. The fact is, though, Introducing Gordon Chambers is a songwriter's album and there's not a bad track in the bunch. The album is highlighted by several top notch midtempo cuts, including My Valentine (previously recorded by Thomas), the nifty duet with Sara Devine, Still In Love, and Chambers' affirmative, uplifting anthem, Always Be Proud. Similarly strong is Chambers' venture into his own notable past, a jazzy cover of I Apologize. SoulTracks readers know I'm a sucker for strong Soul ballads and Introducing has two of them: I'll Miss You Most is a forlorn love song accentuated by Mike Phillips' wonderful sax solo, and The Only One is the perfect album closer, a marriage proposal set to acoustic piano. Kudos to Chambers and producers Barry Eastmond, Brian Bacchus and Troy Taylor for putting together one of the best adult albums we'll hear this year. Let's hope that Urban Adult Contemporary and Smooth Jazz radio pick up on this excellent disc. Like Kevin Whalum's Timetable was for many SoulTracks readers last year, this is a surprise treat of an album. And for lovers of sophisticated soul, this is a disc that shouldn't be missed. Very highly recommended. -Soultracks.com

Very nice CD.......2007-03-05

This was a first for me with this artist, I was very impressed.

Great Cd........2006-05-07

Gee, only two people reviewed. I guess others out there don't know about his guy.
I like Gordon chambers. He did a real good job of keeping me wanting to hear more from him. His 1st track was hot and everything else just followed.

Makes my heart feel good!.......2005-07-11

This CD is soooooooo great! This is the best cd I've purchased in a very long time. I normally don't buy whole albums anymore b/c all the songs aren't good; but this one is an exception. I am thoroughly impressed by this man's voice, the song lyrics, the arrangements, everything. This is true music. This is my new favorite cd. Get this cd if you like Brian McKnight, Carl Thomas, Musique, Kem, Kenny Lattimore, Avant, etc. You will LOVE this cd. Also another recommendation is newcomer *Raheem DeVaughn*.

Best I've heard in years!.......2005-06-20

Thank You Gordon Chambers. Anyone who doesn't pick up this CD is not playing with a full deck. This is back in the day "Smokey Robinson" kind of music. My very favorite is "I'll miss you most" but any selection on the CD is fantastic. I'll be checking to see what else Gordon is doing. This is the best new music I've heard in year. Keep it going, Gordon.
