I saw a review that almost made me not get this CD. It criticized Seal for not having partnered up with Travor Horn as he has in the past. But two thumbs up to Seal. And if you are a die-hard Seal fan like me, you too will enjoy listening to this CD. It's gritty, sensual and has some outstanding club beats too! Seal's soulful sounds are still in tact. He didn't need Trevor.
