Review of the Gerald Levert CD Father And Son

Father And Son is the latest Pop CD put out by the very talented Gerald Levert who once again has delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. I'm confident Gerald Levert fans, and Pop fans alike will be pleased with this one.

It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that's exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn't a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.

Gerald Levert is one of those musicians that has the ability to just win you over with him talent. The kind of artist it's really a treat to be able to listen to.

This is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it two thumbs up. It's quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Pop fan.

While this entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - I Got Your Back, track 11 - You Got Your Hooks In Me, and track 12 - The Apple Don't Fall

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - For The Love. What a nice track!
