It doesn't matter though because, what the Wet Mix does in the bedroom, this will do on the dancefloor. This would have been an essential track had the Wet Mix wasn't already perfect. The last track on this CD is what the fuss is about really, Carl McIntosh, no relation to CJ, provides his own remix of Cruisin' and a great job he makes of it. For a short while in the early 90's, this sparse production style was referred to as Drum & Bass, anyone else remember that? Track 3 is subtitled Just Tha Beat Mix and features a rap from AZ. The musicians and backing are all top notch (assuming the band is live too, of course). The first CD features a superb Live rendition which proves that D'Angelo is no studio creation. Although Cruisin' and Brown Sugar were superb releases, Lady was always lauded as a great album track, way before it's single release. The Brown Sugar album finally got some recognition when Lady made the charts a year later in 1996. Great work Honey, looking forward to the YD 12". OK Family, major props to the lovely Kymba who has provided not only both parts of this 2 CD release but also, all of the artwork, scanned full size so all the dodgy small print can be read.
