Reviewed by Tony Cummings
Norman isn't one of those chaps who indulges in the questionable practice of darting in and out of a mighty voiced choir, letting the sisters take most of the lead vocals and cop the star billing and the royalties. Norman has a great voice and lets it ring out loud and rich on all the 8 songs here though on the soulful "How Can I Say Thank You" wife/sister Michelle joins him for a duet. Though recorded in the studio it has a live feel (as the credit reads: thanks to "Capitol Records staff for enabling us to turn Studio A into The Church' for this record." If you liked the man's 'Norman Hutchins' debut, you'll like this, Norman has the vocal chops and that's a pretty good choir behind him.
