Talk About It
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Now this is world music--the kind of sound that defies classification and stretches itself beyond musical borders. Following up her multiple Dove Award-winning debut, Nicole C. Mullen is back with a vengeance on Talk About It. The energetic release carries a warm and joyous feel that unites rather than divides through its incorporation of pop, R&B, hip-hop, and gospel. This melting-pot strategy complements Mullen's lyrical dedication to racial reconciliation. For example, on the rocking and rollicking "Black Light," Mullen sings about the need for integrity in today's leaders. She can also jam hard on such numbers as the release's title track, "Witness," and "Sometimes." Mullen changes speeds well on "Baby Girl" and "Let Me Go," paying musical homage to the likes of Stevie Wonder and Sly and the Family Stone. In fact, producer (and husband) David Mullen amply uses horns throughout, giving a slight wink to '60s soul. The ultimate result is a wonderful collage of stylish influences that will please music fans on repeated listens. --Michael Lyttle --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

Cy Coleman and David Zippel's City of Angels is a seductive depiction of 1940s Los Angeles, capturing swinging jazz, torchy ballads, witty lyrics, and even a Manhattan Transfer-like Greek chorus (arranged by ManTran guru Yaron Gershovsky). James Naughton and Gregg Edelman star as Stone and Stine, respectively a tough Raymond Chandleresque PI and the writer who dreams up his adventures. Randy Graff plays Stone's long-suffering secretary and Dee Hoty the requisite femme fatale. Loads of atmosphere and tasty songs such as "What You Don't Know About Women," "With Every Breath I Take," "You're Nothing Without Me," and "You Can Always Count on Me" make City of Angels a modern classic. It won 1990 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Leading Actor (Naughton), Featured Actress (Graff), Best Book (Larry Gelbart), and Best Original Score. --David Horiuchi
Customer Reviews:
Fun Show, Average Score.......2007-02-21
Fun show, ingenuos concept, so-so score, with one exception. The ballad With Every Breath I Take is brilliant. One of Coleman's best pieces.
Cleverness personified.......2006-10-16
A duet between an author and the character he created, each claiming "you're nothing without me," is just one example of how sharp, witty and clever show is, with an unusual score, jazzy and bluesy and very 1940s, and some of the best lyrics I know.
Fantastic Jazz Musical That's FUN!!!.......2006-04-14
City of Angels is an incredibly fun, classy, and jazzy musical that delivers. Stellar vocal performances are provided by the entire cast, particularly the female end. The fact that Randy Graff was the only female from this cast nominated at the Tony Awards that year floors me. Kay McClelland and Rachel York deserved nods for their powerful solos, With Every Breath I Take and Lost Found, alone. These two songs are also the type of sultry, jazz solos that one would expect in the 40's, which is why the show works. The music is completely period with when the show takes place, and that's why I love it. The best tracks are:
3) What You Don't Know About Women
6) With Every Breath I Take (destined to be a classic)
9) Lost and Found (wonderful solo)
10) All You Have To Do Is Wait (FUN! FUN! FUN SONG!!! Hilarious as well)
11) You're Nothing Without Me
13) You Can Always Count On Me (Randy Graff's Tony!)
Great Jazz-Oriented Score.......2005-06-25
1990 Tony winner for Best Musical, "City Of Angels" contains a great score, filled with jazz-oriented melodies & torch songs. Not all the songs are terrific, but most of the score lends itself to repeat listenings. Best tracks include:
Double Talk
What You Don't Know About Women
With Every Breath I Take [beautiful song!]
Lost And Found
You're Nothing Without Me [the show's hit]
You Can Always Count On Me
Funny
Great cast ... great buy!
I love it!.......2005-02-22
This is one of my favorite soundtracks ever! Since I'm going to be working on music for the show, I'm happy that this is the case. It has been in my CD player for a few weeks now, and there's enough variety for it not to get old. But having read through the script makes the lyrics infinitely wittier. Musicals are supposed to rely partially on the lyrics and partially on the script. This show does that perfectly. Without the script, the lyrics are (apparently) lacking. But without the lyrics, the script is missing something. When you put the two pieces together, however, it's really easy to see why this show won a Tony.

A missed opportunity....................2007-02-14
The vibe is all but gone from Carl's brilliant debut. The production is off and a lot of the songs are dull.

My First Love
She Is
Know It's Alright(Malik Yusef's spoken word is not as good as his one on Emotional)
Make It Alright
The Baby Maker (TOp Song)
Dreamer (Good)
kind of a disappointment .......2006-04-05
I don't own Carl's debut album, so I really don't know what it was like. After hearing such hits as "Summer Rain", "Emotional" and "Wish I Never Met Her" I expected much more from this album. I have heard Carl Thomas sing live and he can really sing. This CD didn't seem to showcase his vocals well and his voice sounded kind of weak on some songs. After listening through the CD it was only six songs I thought were good:
My First Love - very pretty song
The Baby Maker - very soulful, reminds me of the 70s, CT did a good job singing
Dreamer - this song was off the hook, loved the overall sound to it, very unique
A Promise - this one was nice, it kind of has that gospel feel to it
But Me - I really liked the tempo on this song
Work It Out - now this song I believe was the best, the beat is off the hook
The other songs were either annoying or boring. In the beginning of the CD he has this poetic reading interlude going on. It was not good. Especially when Carl joined in, that is when it got annoying. I couldn't wait for it to be over. The CD really doesn't get any better until the third track. I had to skip over some songs after that to get to some worth listening. Towards the end of the CD it gets very boring. I can tell at least three of the last songs were fillers because of the lack of effort put into them. "All You're Given", "Let Me Know", and "Rebound" sounded so bland and dull. I tried to force myself to listen to them but I just couldn't because they are so boring.
Overall if you're a fan of Carl Thomas I guess it's worth a listen. I really don't recommend that you buy this because it wasn't great. Some of the songs I believe they could have done without. Like "Anything and "Make it Alright", very boring songs. "She Is" featuring LL Cool J has a nice beat but after a while I began to get sick of it. I only play this CD when I want to hear those six songs I like. This CD was a let down and I felt Carl Thomas didn't show or put enough effort into it.
Nice Work, Carl - "let's talk about " this one..........2006-01-16
It's always tough for an artist to follow a high quality, top selling classic release like "Emotional," Carl Thomas's debut album. "Let's Talk About It" does a pretty damn good job of accomplishing such a feat. There are quite a few exceptional tracks on this album, including "My First Love," "Make It Alright" and "Let Me Know" which all demonstrate Carl's ability to add emotion to every song he sings on. "She Is" feat. LL Cool J didn't need to be put on the album or released as a single. The sample on the track has been used so many times by rappers and R&B artists and it was not a unique song. "P. Diddy" and others' production didn't make the album as a whole sound as "old" as Emotional which will draw some of Carl's fans from the first album away. However, there are quite a few tracks that are definately "classic" like "The Baby Maker" and "All You've Given." Carl could have held out more notes and "broke out" more to show his true vocal range on more songs. He did do it on enough songs to make this release "good quality." I am in the middle on the "poetry/rapping" he used on his first album as well as this one. It is probably not needed but it is "artistic." Carl, keep up the good work, just don't let the A&Rs, Producers and Executives around you change your musical direction. Keep recording quality music that can last for years to come.
Don't sleep on this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2005-10-28
This album dropped in March 2004 and it's still being played in my car. Bad Boy did a terrible job in promoting this album however I recruited 8 of my friends to buy it and they did not care for CT, but they love the cd now. There are 15 strong cuts on this album and it should be in your collection.
Let's Talk About It..........2005-08-31
I know music, been writing music for years now. Music is my life; I also write music professionally.
This CD is just as good or even better than EMOTIONAL. Although Emotional had some seriously GREAT songs, this does too and is very consistant on quality. Good job Carl! Must buy!
JUST BUY THE DAMN CD ITS AWESOME!

Not Only Does This Have One Of My Favorite Songs, The Rest Of The Project Is Good As Well!.......2007-03-30
Just over a year before writing this review, I didn't know much about Nicole C. Mullen, except for the song "Redeemer". At that time, I heard a song titled "Call On Jesus", which I fell instantly in love with. I think anyone can figure out that this song is on this project.
This album is as good as that song. The songs have something to say, dealing with various issues. My favorites are "Talk About It", "Call On Jesus", "Come Unto Me", "Sometimes", "Black Light", and "Heaven".
One comment on the song "Call On Jesus". When I heard it on the radio, it starts out with the drums establishing the beat. This version includes a 20 second string quartet intro that is just beautiful, before going into the drums.
Impacting Music.......2005-01-31
I bought this cd 2 years ago based on a few clips I could download. I have a hard time choosing words that do justice to the power and the impact that the messages in her music send to me. "When you call on Jesus all things ARE possible".
For those of you who have children make sure that you listen to all of #14. She sings a bedtime song to her children that is so touching.
Let's talk about it!!!!.......2003-07-21
What a voice!!!!!!
Following her smash, self-titled debut album, Nicole C. Mullen took the Christian rock world by storm in 2001 with the release of the single "Call On Jesus." Quickly rising to the top of all the Christian charts, and staying there for many months, Nicole became a Christian household name. Nearly two years later, "Call On Jesus" remains one of the most requested songs on Christian radio stations.
This album, however, is much more than just that single. It contains a wide range of musical styles, from hip hop, to rock, to ballads. In addition, peppered throughout the album are little snippets that I can best described as a look into Nicole's heart (listen to "All Aboard," "#27," and "Jas Class," along with the end after "When Heaven Calls."
No matter what your musical taste, Nicole C. Mullen has not only included it on this album, but she has nailed each and every one. Without a doubt, one of the best releases in 2001.
STRAIGHT FIRE!!!.......2003-05-11
IF YOU LISTEN TO FRED HAMMOND, TONEX, KAREN CLARK, JOANNE ROSAIRO, YOLANDA ADAMS, SOP OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPORAY ARTIST YOU WILL LOVE THIS. SO MANY PEOPLE ARE CAUGHT UP IN THE TRADIONAL SOUND THAT THEY CAN'T ENJOY THE NEWER SOUNDING ARTIST BUT ITS ALL PRAISES TO FATHER GOD. HE IS THE BEST AND THESE ARTIST DO A GOOD JOB GETTING HIS WORD OUT IN SONG FORM.
"Talk about It" to Everyone.......2002-12-21
The first song I ever heard Nicole sing was "Redeemer," and I was hooked! I went out immediately and bought the CD "Nicole C. Mullen." She soon became my favorite artist. I went and saw her sing in a "brown bag" concert in Houston, Texas. A brown bag concert is basically a single artist singing in a mall or a small outside location. She was just starting out at the time. She came out and everyone was excited. She sang outside. The temperature was about 65 degrees and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. She sang under a tarp canopy. Her voice was so full and rich that it resonated. I can't explain it in words, because I have never had that type of experience before. If you are a chocolate lover and I am, it is like drinking a warm cup of hot chocolate at the Ghiradeli Chocolate Factory in San Fransisco (multiplied by about a million). I bought her "Talk about it" CD as soon as it came out, and bought another one for her to sign at a concert she sang at Lakewood Church in Houston. I keep it proudly in a box with all my special memories I have had since childhood. I had the pleasure of talking with her after both her concerts I attended. She is just as sweet and beautiful as her music, if that's possible. I just saw she has a Christmas Album out, so I guess I will have to go buy that after I finish this writing this review. I love her music so much that my wife and I played a live version of "Redeemer" at our wedding. When I first heard "Redeemer," it touched me so much it brought tears to my eyes. I was just beginning my personal walk with Christ and I listened to this song over and over again. I didn't think you could wear out a CD, but I have replaced the two CD's twice. If you could imagine watching the most beautiful woman in the world, in a dress worthy of the Princess of Buckingham, walking up the aisle (crying because she loves you so much), you can catch a glimse of how powerful and beautiful Nicole's music is.

How Jazz-Rock was Born. British anyways........2005-07-21
Nucleus's first two albums are some nice pieces of history in the field of jazz-rock. Elastic Rock is kind sounds like Nucleus rushed thought the pieces,but the album does has good rifts and solos mostly by Jenkins and Carr. Highlights on this album here are Twisted Track,an original by Speeding and Peter Brown, that features some nice country blues guitar by Speeding,Torrid Zone and Persephones Blues. Songs like Stonescape,Striantion and Speaking of Myself... are indulgent ideas. Next is a more polished,funk-filled We'll Talk About it Later. Song For a Bearded Lady is a classic and sounds a little better then Hazard Profile from Soft Machine inwhich had Jenkins and Marshall in it, but the song is a gritty funk number with some heavy distored wah-wah piano and slick guitar work. Sun Child follows the theme but with some of the most complex rhythm by Clyde and Mrshall. The gloomy Lullaby For a Lomesome Child is next with a basic rift and head but no solo. The Title Track is a disorganized piece with Speeding holding it together. The long Oasis is an odd piece,you can really get it in your head. Ballad of Joe Pimp is fun to listen to. The unknown singer and simple-minded lyrics get tedious kind of. Easter 1916 is a reprise off of Battle of Boogaloo with some gruff vocal lines making you think of Willam Shatner, but the end of the song is the best with Brian Smith and John Marshall going free-form on us, kind of like Jupiter by Coltrane. A highly recommended double set to own. Recommendation: Six by Soft Machine.
Great Music from a Forgotten Era.......2004-09-30
This CD reminds me that the In a Silent Way did not spring full blown from the forehead of Miles Davis. The first disc is an excellent example of In a Silent Way style modal jazz. It's no wonder from listening to this that the addition of 2 Englishmen made the Miles stuff leap so far ahead. The second disc is even better in my estimation. Some amazing guitar work from the underappreciated Chris Spedding. Great themes from Karl Jenkins and terrific playing from the whole ensemble. A worthwhile purchase for anyone who enjoys the music that Miles made in this era. The fact that the band is led by trumpeter Ian Carr only makes the comparisons more obvious. There's only one Miles, but this stuff holds its weight on its own merits.
What a sound!.......2004-08-21
Ian Carr & Nucleus is a genuine pioneer of British Jazz-Rock Fusion blending free-jazz with psychedelic improvisational rock elements. There is true spirit in their works, far from nowadays pathetic fusion music. Highly-recommended!!!
p.s.: You can see free MP3 file above on this page. Just stop trying to judge IC & Nucleus by it because it is the song of the completely different group with the same name. Amazon should correct this.
British underground jazz-rock.......2002-05-27
I'm quiet surprised to be the first to review this fantastic album. Led by trompetist Ian Carr, and supported by Karl Jenkins and John Marshall (before joining Soft Machine) this band just realized this two albums in 1971. I just can highly recommend this one to anyone who likes Soft Machine and those british jazz-rock bands.

Great set of wartime rarities.......2003-05-14
Spike Jones was the king of the novelty song performers, with hits like "Der Fuehrer's Face" and the parody version of "Sheik of Araby" becoming huge hits during World War II. This is a swell 3-CD set, gathering a full eighty-one of Jones' best tracks from his 1940s heyday, drawn from an extensive archive of radio broadcasts made for the Standard Transcription service. The tightness of his City Slickers band is amply demonstrated in these manic, kookily orchestrated performances. Toots, squonks, blatts and bleats whiz by at lightning speed, as one daffy song after another will delight devoted fans. Amazingly, Jones had the unusual, almost unique ability to perform a repertoire almost entirely made up of comedic material, and yet still be quite listenable and engaging. His jazz chops were hardly in question, and from time to time Jones would dash off a non-novelty ballad or two, just to give the rubes something to think about. Of course, just as often he would perform a song that *sounded* like a straight ballad, but would turn out to be another goof. (One great example of this is the sultry "Serenade To A Jerk," sung in slinky, burlesque tones by Myrtle Horwin.) This collection may seem a little overwhelming, but like his studio recordings, these radio performances have a certain brilliance and joie de vivre about them that will leave you enchanted. Definitely worth checking out!

This collection has remastered material from the large stack of Standard Transcription discs from the early 1940's. There are many songs not recorded on RCA, many on the theme of wartime ("48 Reasons Why"), and the quality is excellent. The packaging is threadbare but this is an essential CD package for true music lovers.
