A New York-based choir created by Willie D Feaster, Willie D Marshall and the late Billie Jones, this is both a showcase for some of the ensemble's individual as well as the collective efforts of the choir. "Open Her Eyes" is a track sung by an individual female who possesses almost angelic vocals. All 12 tracks on the CD have a very retro sound reminiscent of the likes of Earth, Wind And Fire emanating their crossover funky rare groove vibe. "Truth Is The Light" is one of the tracks demonstrating that sound from the era of the '80s and '70s. "No More Issues" starts off slow in acappella and then the track has a surprise twist when it springs into a more upbeat sound of the swinging jazz decade. "Thank You" is a track that turns the album on its head and is a very current sound, mellow with a very clear appreciative message. For an obscure release, this individualistic set is highly impressive.
