Bobby does have a smooth voice on What U Won't Do For Love, nice jam to be with your honey, Ms. Phyllis Hyman is the only one I've heard to do a good copy of it | |

Bobby Caldwell rocks!!! in a jazzy soul big band kinda way. The latter song is clearly a love song classic. With "Open Your Eyes" I was not familiar with that track but recognized his voice immediately when I first heard "The Light" and searched for that song, and come to find out I had it. Sometimes one can have so much music that it all doesn't get my full attention. I've seen him live twice and met him. He tends to perform at suave kinda sophisticated settings, so you feel a little more grown up after seeing him. He's an awesome singer. "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!

I still bump What You Won't Do For Love till this day! Open Your Eyes, I'm not really familiar with other than knowing it was used in Commmon's song. Bobby had some serious cuts back in the day. I love Catwalk, his version of Love Won't Let Me Wait and Coming Down From Love. | |
