专辑介绍

With Transitions, Freddie Jackson makes another label jump, this time to Fort Lee, New Jersey's Orpheus imprint. Jackson's sound is not significantly different, but then, when you have a voice like his, it doesn't have to be. Jackson is one of the great urban balladeers and uptown soul singers of the era. He has a career track of strong singles, consistent albums, and a presence that is undeniable. He is a crooner whether the tune is a string-sodden love song such as the opener, &Until the End of Time,& or a finger-popping mid-tempo groover like &Hold on Me.& Jackson reveals on this album the depth of yearning in the grain of his voice. It's full of dreams and possibilities, heartbreak and desire. Check &How Can I& with its flamenco guitar opening, and the shapeshifting electric guitars that underscore every line. There's the dreamy &More Than Friends,& where the influential traces of Marvin Gaye, Ronald Isley, and Al Jarreau all come together in Jackson's delivery. The strutting bedroom funk of &Superman& is one of those tracks where Jackson lays his vocal deep in the cut. The final cut is a stellar, and ingenious, medley of Delaney & Bonnie's &Superstar& and &Wind Beneath My Wings& as a closer. The added bonus on this set is a DVD that includes no less than 17 videos and is, essentially, a greatest hits. From &Rock Me Tonight& and &Nice & Slow& to &You Are My Lady& and &Don't Wanna Lose Your Love,& plus more. This is a nice touch for an indie, and gives Jackson fans and newcomers plenty to sink their teeth into.
