5 out of 5 stars you're a star, you truly are..........2007-01-04

Lovely classic disco. Found the 45' vinyl "undercover lover" in a thrift store for about £2. One of the best disco tunes ever. The album's nice too.

4 out of 5 stars Disco doesn't get much better than this.......2006-08-04

I disagree with the viewers reviews of this cd. I have an $8000.00 B/O stereo, & I think it sounds great. Much better than all my cds prior to the mid-nineties. Yes the first thing I noticed is that the first beat of Undercover Lover is cut & the songs are slightly shorter. I was a little diappointed, but I've been waiting over 20 years for this cd. This label Has released all the Sabu productions. I feel they'er all impeccable. By the way, Unidisc has always been known for their import quality being better than domestic releases! I highly recommend all these Sabu produced releases.

5 out of 5 stars this is classic disco at it's best........2006-07-09

Although the sound quality of this cd could be better, It still sounds better than the vinyl copy I have. I mainly enjoy playing it full blast in my car. Paul Sabu was way ahead of his time as this was released back in 1978 and it still sounds great today. The sultry vocals of Debbie Jacobs go hand in hand with the hypnotic beats of this disco-classic, masterpiece.

1 out of 5 stars This is a classic disco album that's unfortunately butchered on this cd.......2005-10-18

How disappointed I was when I finally got this disc and put it in my player. My first clue that this was a shoddy release was the quality of the graphics. The blacks in the cover art have an odd uneveness to them. I would not be surprised to learn that the disc inserts (which only include the back card and front cover; no liner notes or other photos included) were printed on a home printer by whomever is running this "getdisconnected" label.

When the first note of "Undercover Lover" began, I immediately thought that perhaps I had not listened carefully. How could it be that part of the first note could be cut off? So I hit the "back up" button on my cd player remote and discovered that, in fact, the first note is slightly truncated.

I was listening with a friend who doesn't even know the title track of this album that well, though he did recently buy the original 45 rpm single after I played him my copy of the 12" single. We both quickly noticed that the tape (or turntable, since I'm not actually convinced that this cd came from a master tape) used to source the cd was running fast.

Only 30 seconds into playing this cd and I was already lamenting having purchased. I continued playing the title track and was unimpressed with the sound quality. If this was taken from a master tape, the EQ choices used in the remastering were poor. This cd sounds much more "thin" than the original vinyl and, though I didn't think it possible, sounds worse than the title track does on an early Unidisc label compilation I have that is notorious for marginal sound quality. I would not be surprised to learn that this cd was sourced from vinyl and processed using consumer level computer tools to attempt to mask the noise from the vinyl playback. (This would also explain the truncation of the first note.) Even if this cd is vinyl sourced, the quality of the cartridge used and/or the EQ choices were poor since good vinyl playback is much, much better than what's delivered here.

The kicker for me was that when the title track was ending, I got the feeling that it was faded early. I'll have to check it out again later to be certain, but the fade certainly didn't match my memory.

If you're interested in this cd, you probably already have the vinyl lp. If you do already have the vinyl lp, don't bother with this cd. Perhaps someday Universal Music (which now presumably controls this material having acquired the MCA catalog) will give this a proper cd release. For now, however, the original album is the way to go.

5 out of 5 stars Disco Classic.......2005-06-21

"Undercover Lover" and "Don't You Want My Love" were Number 1 Disco Hits back in the day. They still hold up today. Great release! Buy it, you won't regret it.

5 out of 5 stars Great soundtrack.......2007-06-04

This used to be my favorite show! It had the coolest, hottest detectives. Even their boss would talk some trash. This takes me back to Natalies- they had all the best people perform.

5 out of 5 stars New York Undercover always had the greatest music!.......2006-08-23

The episodes weren't bad either. If anyone needs a copy of the series just email me.

4 out of 5 stars This Is A Good Soundtrack, BUT. . ........2006-06-13


I'm anxiously waiting for "New York Undercover" to be put out on DVD. Hoolllaaa!

4 out of 5 stars UnCovered!.......2004-09-14

For all of you diehard New York Undercover fans waiting for the detective drama to surface on DVD some day, this selection will walk you down memory lane quenching your thirst in the interim. It was definitely a flashback ride! Listening to this CD, I could actually pin each of the songs to a particular episode and scene. You will enjoy it. I also recommend its sister soundtrack - New York Undercover: A Night At Natalie's.

5 out of 5 stars A Gem of A CD...........2000-12-17

....I was into getting a bunch of these 90's soundtrack CDs because they usually turned out to be a compilation of singles from various artists rather than the Jerry Goldsmith/Lalo Schifrin/Bernard Herrmann style of instrumental orchestrations to fit the filmed scenes...there's nothing wrong with those and I would not have been disappointed if they had put more of the James Mtume instrumental pieces threwn throughout the TV program in this CD, but what they've done here is aii-ght. All cuts are good and they even forshadowed a Guy reunion and K-Ci and JoJo Hailey in their first "non-Jodeci" cut. I particularly digs from track 7 on...the Lost Boys' "Jeeps, Lex Coups, Bimaz and Benz" and a great groovin' slow jam by Anthony Hamilton and Terri Robinson "I Will Go" sets it off right. This CD has been somewhat hard to find...it's great Amazon.com has it.

    5 out of 5 stars Still holds out.......2006-02-22

    This is a title that still holds out as one of the best titles in Smooth Jazz. Yes I know it is a bold statement, but it certainly holds up very very well.
    Get it while you can!

    5 out of 5 stars A Former Great.......2003-02-23

    Only You, one of the cuts on Undercover, is one of my all-time favorites of any jazz saxophonist. Very rythmic. Somewhat of a smooth jazz, contemporary feel, but likely to appeal to straight-ahead jazz enthusiasts as well.

    Absolutely the best album I have heard in a long time. The deep emotional performance by Art Porter is certainly a treat for your musical ear. Every track is fantastic, poetic in many ways. One of the "must have" for any contemporary jazz-sax lover. Even better than "Lay Your Hands On Me "!
