Incognito Album: “Who Needs Love [Bonus Tracks]”

I didn't get the previous Incognito cd that was released only in Europe, so it's been about five years since my ears have been blessed by new Incognito grooves. WNL is a great addition to the Incognito oeuvre.

The music is five-star material and the lyrics are more thoughtful than a year's worth of top-ten pop songs. Where this CD falls a bit short is in the vocal fireworks. All the singers do a great job on all the songs, but none of the songs feature what I would consider a standout vocal performance. Incognito CDs have always had at least one explosive vocal performance on every album: Always There, Still A Friend of Mine, Labour of Love, etc. WHO NEEDS LOVE is missing that one song whose singing makes your ears dance. All very good, none electrifying, although the title track comes very very close.

That said, the music is typical Bluey excellence, which is enough to merit four stars. Next time, Bluey, get Maysa for at least one track.

I used to like Incognito with their early hits and album, but then lost interest, because the albums didn't convince me anymore. After a longer pause, I tried this one and it is really nice and mellow with the wonderful voice of JOY ROSE who should have a solo record too !:) Very good choice :) Kelli Sae is on it too. It's Incognito as you know it - one of their better albums though.

I feel cheated because I was such a fan I bought the 13-track version because it was released first, but now I see this 14-track version. What's up with that?

I would say every bit as good as any of their past albums--- and I have them all !Great summertime listening !

very good album to listen to the vocals are hot the band itself is even hotter i'm a big incognito fan so this is just an addition to my incognito collection
