When Alvin Chea, David Thomas, Claude McKnight, Cedric Dent, and Joey and Mark Kibble burst onto the scene from a small Alabama college in the early '90s as the vocal group Take 6, their gospel-inspired vocals and all-embracing musical outlook blew listeners and categories away with their hip and heavenly messages of hope. With two unreleased tracks--"One and the Same," featuring the soul stirrings of CeCe Winans, and the samba-fied "The Best Stuff in the World Today Cafe"--this collection shows off the ensemble's ability to drop God's word into earthly beats. Take 6 can go from the celestial harmonies of "Mary," "A Quiet Place," and Handel's "Oh Thou That Tellest Good Tidings to Zion" (with a rejuvenated Stevie Wonder) to the South African sonorities of "Fly Away," the East Indian impressions of "Destiny," and the bop-jazz-fusion-flavored "So Much 2 Say," "U Turn," and "Setembro (Brazilian Wedding Song)." Pop-wise, "I L-O-V-E U," "Spread Love," and the Ambrosia hit "Biggest Part of Me" show off their beat-box, R&B, and adult-contemporary chops. Through Take 6, God moves--and sings--in mysterious and marvelous ways. --Eugene Holley Jr.

Customer Reviews

The best vocal group on the planet
Click here for Take 6's newest album.Feels Good The Greatest Hits is fantastic! You will never be bored listening to Take 6 and you will always be inspired. They are so jazzy and spirit filled that you can't help but smile when listening to this album. Their harmonies are so tight and they sound so good together. This group thinks outside the box and they will knock you out of your blue funk and have you singing along with them and praising God. I also highly recommend their newest album, "Feels Good". This newest album is the best yet and it is sure to make you feel good when you listen to it. It will put you in the best mood. I play it in my car all the time. I am planning on purchasing more Take 6 cd's very soon. I am totally in love with this group. There's nothing else out there like them. They all are capable of playing musical instruments, They are all college graduates, and they can beat box quite well too. If you like vocal jazz and six part harmonies, and variety and inspiration, then you will just love this group. I know I do. I even have a song on my anwering machine at home. If you still have douts, Go on the You Tube website and type in Take 6 music and watch some live performances on your computer. Then I am sure that you will be convinced. from Merry Joy Hayes

Excellent CD
Great compilation of Take 6's master mind of musical ability. The Baddest Jazz Kats ever.

The Best Stuff
Since seeing these guys perform live at the then 'North Sea - Jazz Festival' in Cape Town 2002 I became an instant fan. This album is reminiscent of that great day. The whole album is an enjoyable experience and 'hats-off' to the group for its talent, unity and deliverance. The tracks that stand out for me are 'Destiny','Mary' , 'Spread Love', 'So Much to Say','U-Turn'and 'Biggest Part of Me'- Tebza (Cape Town - South Africa)
