John Legend - Once Again (Audio CD - 2006)

Aside from his gravely pipes and genteel piano playing, John Legend's sophomore record has little in common with his Grammy-winning debut, Get Lifted. Surprisingly experimental, Once Again finds Legend dabbling in psychedelic rock and Burt Bacharach-reminiscent pop. Although his ambition should be applauded, the best cuts find Legend's off-kilter vocals anchored by his sparse ivory tickling or by pitch-perfect background vocals and heartier rhythms. After all, Legend's no bad boy. He's a throwback to clean-cut crooners like Smokey Robinson, and Once Again, that's what makes this engaging singer-songwriter a legend in the making.
Condition: NEW. Drilled case.
