Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Like most good lover men, Joe knows you can unzip more flies with honey than with hassles. This understated but seriously gifted singer/songwriter may not enjoy the superstar profile or recognition of some of his fellow R&B Romeos, but as his fourth CD, Better Days, proves, what he lacks in persona he more than makes up for in persuasive and sensual songs. There's a gentleness and ease in Joe's smoothed-out, sexy, and decidedly grown-up brand of R&B. Listen to the way his silky vocals glide over the ever-so-syncopated keyboards on "I Like Sexy Girls." Or hear how Joe concocts a romantic and realistic evening on the undulating single "Let's Stay Home Tonight." Even when Joe is trying to get his mack on, he remains a gentleman. It's that soft-spoken, from-the-heart approach, along with well-crafted tracks, that make Better Days a keeper. --Amy Linden Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - Better Days by JoeI've love Joe's music since age 15. Something about his singing keeps me calm. My favorite on 'Betters Days' are : lover's prayer, better days, world of girls etc. I love all his songs. I recommend this album to everyone. Pop it in your car stereo and chill with that special someone. Rating: - Gives me a Warm feeling :)I'm surprised not everyone enjoyed this CD as much as I did! I was 19 when this CD came out and it was quite a time. I thouroughly enjoyed Joe's last two efforts and was a certified fan. I rooted for him on this effort and bought the CD was unfortunately it was not commercially successful. 'Let's stay home tonight' is a perky intro to a CD full of gems. Some Standounts include: #1) Let's Stay Home Tonight (snuggle with your honey) #9) Lover's Prayer (an amazing song) #10)Changed Man (men shoud take heed) #12)She Used to Love me (reggae-tinged fun song) #13)World of Girls (fun song, very listenable) But don't be fooled, the whole CD can just be played without skipping tracks. He does have some missteps such ... Read More: Rating:  - A step down from the last never the less still goodIt's no secret that JOE is a very talented soul singer. However after the mamooth sucess of My Name Is Joe, Better Days was released in time for the holiday seasons. Let's Stay Home Tonight," is a rather straightforward remix for the rap audience featuring Petey Pablo. The other collaboration, "Ghetto Child," is a bit more ambitious, featuring Shaggy and the Boys Choir of Harlem. Elsewhere, the emphasis is on Joe. There isn't a roll call of big-name producers here (though the Neptunes do make a showing), so Joe is left to carry much of the album's weight. He proves more than capable of the challenge on songs like the lead single, "Let's Stay Home but Ghetto Child was horrible as was I Like Sexy Girls. In the ballad department JOE offers up the ... Read More: Rating: - An Underated TalentDespite Joe not receiving such wide acclaim as other of todays R&B stars, his work and acheivements should not be overlooked as he is without doubt one of todays most gifted songwriters. On his fourth project, Better Days (2001), he diplays his growing versatility as an evidently serious recording artist. His work has great depth expoloring serious and relevant human issues and expresses genuinley deep, honest emotion. He has an undeniable flair for ballads with such offerings as What If A Woman, Alone and Isn't This The World. The gentle and sensual musical arrangements which have all the emphasis and elements of the modern day R&B sound are all beautifully mellow with each holding an undeniably timeless appeal. The ... Read More: Rating: - better days alrightThis was not Joe's best album. In my opinion, he really has seen better days. I hate the fact that I can't listen to this album from the front to the back. |
