Customer Reviews

3 stars Extremely talented but uneven mix of songs
I purchased this cd for "Don't Worry, Be Happy" expecting the rest of the CD to be similar in tone. There are a few other pieces similar in feel such as "Freedom is a Voice", "From me To You" and "Bang! Zoom", but it was not what I hoped for. I find the combination of songs very uneven due to their widely different styles. I will enjoy the ones I like and probably never play the others since I find the change from something like "Don't Worry Be Happy" to "Spain" somewhat jarring.

5 stars Gotta love Bobby
He has an amazing range and versitility. I think there was a PBS documentary about him that says he is a teacher. I like that. I also like this CD.

5 stars perfect indeed
A top CD technical high level sound and of course a real good perfomance!

3 stars Interesting but ultimately disappointing.
Let's be clear, Bobby is a genius. His efforts on this this CD however are not up to his true talents. I have enjoyed some of his more inspired work with Yo-Yo Ma or The Vienna Philharmonic more than some of the well-meaning but trite work of this CD.

5 stars absolutely amazing
bobby mcferrin is a vocal master... his version of SPAIN with corea is one of the most amazing songs i've ever heard
