Smooth jazz star Boney James's first album for Concord is loaded with guest contributors: old guard pros including Philip Bailey, George Duke, George Benson, and Wah Wah Watson; and young stalwarts including Faith Evans, Ann Nesby, Dwele, Esthero, and Christian Scott. You don't need to be told it's a sleekly produced affair, replete with real strings as well as synthesized ones and vocal choruses, and that it showcases James's candy-sweet sound on saxophones. But James, who produced the album, tilts more than usual toward contemporary R&B, with the Evans-sung "Gonna Get It" taking top honors. He also reaches into the Antonio Carlos Jobim songbook with "Waters of March," covered not long ago by Cassandra Wilson, and with Nesby doing the emoting, animates the Chuck Mangione ballad, "Soft," with rippling keyboards. In striving to expand his appeal, though, he doesn't sell his fans short. --Lloyd Sachs

 Jazz, smooth and sexy tones January 25, 2008
This is the first I've bought a CD by this artist and it has been one of the regular repeating selections on my stereo since it arrived. It isn't likely to be bumped by any other artist for quite awhile, either.
One of my favorite Boney James CDs November 12, 2007
I like Boney James and while I have liked all his releases since Seduction, I really think he is getting better and better with each release. This one is no exception. Its as good if not better than Pure which I thought was better than Ride and so on. This time out, my favorites are the tracks with George Benson and George Duke. If you like Boney James you will definitely like Shine. Definitely among his best work. If you are new to Boney James, you might also check out "Sweet Thing".
Awsome September 3, 2007
Some great Boney James. I also love the vocal tracks. A real treat when you just want to chill out and relax. This guy is one smooth musician. A must for any Boney fan.
