Album Review
Calvin Richardson made a small impression as part of the short-lived mid-'90s urban group Undercover, whose smooth contemporary soul showed the influence of Jodeci, childhood friends of Richardson. So, it shouldn't come as a great surprise that Country Boy, his 1999 solo debut, also recalls Jodeci (it even features K-Ci on the opening track, "I'll Take Her"). To Richardson's credit, he does show signs of developing his own vocal style, even if the music either is too close to Jodeci for comfort, or a little too generic. That said, there are several very strong songs — inlcuding the single "True Love," which features Chico DeBarge, and the Monifah duet "Close My Eyes" — that keep Country Boy enjoyable, even when it sounds a little samey.
Customer Reviews
Soulful
This is a great albulm by an artist who has not gotten the attention that he deserves. Very smooth and soulful the whole way through. If you are a fan of Jodeci and K-Ci and JoJo you will love this album.
Just Like Soul Food
This guy is a great artist. I have thoroughly enjoyed all three of his albums. Country Boy is marinated Soul to the bone. Excellent album.
Slept on artist
Great introductory album for my man, Calvin Richardson. It's best to listen from this album, to 2:35 p.m., to When Love Comes to show how this man has matured and grown as an artist. If you don't know Calvin, now is the time to do so. You won't be disappointed.
