Free Music Notes for Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent d'Arby
Free Music Review: Definitely a Hard Line
Hit: 5 Stars
I heard this record the first time when I was around seven or eight years old. I remember hearing it and thinking of how much Mr. Maitreya (more popularly known as Mr. D'Arby) reminded me of other R&B singers I knew of, like Stevie Wonder. Of course, this was before I knew he was a drummer and keyboard player. Of all things, it was indirectly my interest in The Cosby Show that led me to purchase the album for myself. I re-discovered it after hearing "Seven More Days" during Episode 12 of A Different World, "Advise and Descent."
I purchased Introducing the Hardline innitially to have a copy of "Seven More Days." Upon sitting down and listening to all eleven songs, I've discovered that the record definitely includes a definitive "hard line." Sananda Maitreya put across this material with an undeniable passion that is so rarely seen among current artists in almost any genre. One of the best things about the record is that Sananda's writing is the sort that isn't instantly confined to the R&B and pop genres. Those songs could be remade as rock songs, especially in the hands of a producer like Ron Nevison or Robert John "Mutt" Lange.

This album is one of those that you let play all the way through. No filler here just pure quality from a guy with great talent. 1987 was a great year for r&b music. Along with this album Prince also had his Sign O the Times album out and Michael Jackson had his Bad album out. Of course people compared Terence to both of those guys but he had a style all his own. This album is one of the greats. Free Music Review: Perfect album.
Hit: 5 Stars
One of the last great soul albums (with Jackson's Bad) and peak of his career. Good arrangements and beautiful vocal. For me highlights are - If you let me stay, Wishing well, Sign your name and Smokey Robinson's Who's lovin you. For everyone who like 80's soul.
