Cross Rhythms have long been supporters of these Midlands soul sisters though in recent years it appeared that the chance of the big time had passed for Dionne, Maryanne and Estella as newer groups like Siani grabbed most of the recent publicity. But surprise, surprise, the trio have come bouncing back with this album, produced by Tony Bean and Colin Bassett. Everything's in place - some smooth, fluid lead vocals, some impressive harmonies and some funky programming. And it's possible that you'll hear one or two of these songs on urban radio. But, in truth, few of the songs connect and the single "Woman Like Me" is probably the best cut on the album while the anti-drug song here "Natural High" is worthy in its intent but has one of the most stilted lyrics you are likely to hear. Great voices but, all in all, better songwriting needed.
