This seems to come up a lot on here and it comes down to two things.
1. Are you a big fan of Jesses guitar playing? 2. Do you like Rock? If you answer yes to both then cope it. As big a Jesse fan as I am, I just couldn't get into a rock album. The song "Vibe" is cool though. Bringing Together Five Decades of R&B/Funk/Soul/Dance

Harle, have you got the other albums? If so, what are your favourite tracks? That will give us an ideas as to what you might like.
Personally, I think its Jesse's weakest album, but it does have its highlights. . | |

Bare my Naked Soul was Jesse's record to prove/distance himself from Prince. This record is FAR from Prince-styled songs like Crazay, She-I Can't Resist, etc. While it's a drum machine, Jesse cranks the distortion and isn't afraid to explore styles - he covers BB-style Blues, LOTS and LOTS of Hendrix and just pure groove stuff.
There wasn't really a standout track, in my opinion, the whole album was good. It wasn't GREAT, there wasn't a song that JUMPED OUT above all the rest - but, unfortunately, the album tracks like a promo-demo type CD - to showcase his abilities; the songs don't feel like they belong in any type of grouping - that would be the one problem I had with the CD. But certainly worth the purchase if you liked his work on the rockin Time and JJ wreckas. The Last Otan Track: www.funkmusician.com/what.mp3 | |

Buy 2 Prince may be the purple Yoda, but Wendy & Lisa and Eric Leeds also sit on the Jedi Council. | |
