It takes guts, if not outright egomania, to abandon your given surname and adopt a loaded one like Legend, but the former John Stephens must have sensed that loftiness would one day be his calling card: Once Again, the follow-up to the Grammy-gobbling, platinum pile-on that was Get Lifted, surpasses expectations. Not that it bears much relation to its predecessor. Again again trots out a stable of talented, modern-minded producers--Raphael Saadiq, Legend comrade Kanye West, and the unsinkable will.i.am--but it's nowhere near as self-conscious about embracing the old-school as the knowing, R&B edge-skimming Lifted. Don't expect a derivative mash of smudgy, nostalgia-filching sounds, though, because despite its retro leanings, what's in store somehow crackles with currency. Call it neo-retro if you must, but never call it unimaginative: first single "Save Room" coasts, drifts, and floats along a ponderous path spiked by a cool keyboard-y crescendo; second single "Heaven" busts out a big, busy beat over a slow seduction; and a couple of selections--"Each Day Gets Better" and "PDA"--are so bright and twirly they seem custom-made for dizzy love scenes or jaunty, sunny-day skips through the park. Maybe the most unusual track is "Show Me," a rock song that pilfers elements of Hendrix and finds Legend climbing a few octaves to sound, weirdly, like Jeff Buckley, but it works: so slippery is its beat and so affecting are its hope-laced lyrics that, oddness aside, it's among the disc's best. Sandwiched as it is among 14 songs that all sound like future classics, that's saying something. --Tammy La Gorce

5 out of 5 stars Once Again - John Legend.......2007-07-16

This is one of the sexiest albums I have heard in awhile. It is pure romance and very old school. I love the way he phrases his lyrics and the "old" vibe he has. This is a great album. I love the whole thing. Even the non-romantic ballads pull you in. He is definitely one of the hottest male singers today.

4 out of 5 stars Once Again - John Legend.......2007-07-08

The title song is teriffic and one you will want to hear over & over & over again.

5 out of 5 stars Legend does it - "Once Again".......2007-07-07

Calll it what you will - jazz, crossover, blues fusion - the cuts work and work well. His "Save Room" in particular adds a quiet energy to his body of work and the rest of the album is just as strong. There is depth here, there is thought here, there is music here.

1 out of 5 stars this is a big downstep.......2007-06-24

john legend dissappointed me....this is a not a good album compared to the first one.....maybe 2 tracks are worth buying it...

1 out of 5 stars "Old School" Yeah Right.......2007-06-22

John legend first cd "Get lifted" was a joy to listen to. His second cd "Once again" is "Once is enough already"!. He sounds straned and annoying. The lyrics are not well written, more like very immature. He tries way to hard and you can hear it in his voice. These R&B acts are losing a lot of fans by making stupid music like this and expect us to "Like this crap". All they care about is getting paid. If you want to hear real R&B with raw lyrics listen to Amy winehouse or Corinne Bailey Rae. The difference between R&B Brits and american fake R&B, they sing with emotion, write meaningful lyrics and have great Vocals. American R&B is only in it for our cash and make awful music with no substance. As long as we keep buying music like this. They will continue to make trashy music like this.

Given the sped-up classic soul samples with which Kanye West has made his mark, it comes as no surprise that the producer/rapper would pick a tradition-minded R&B singer as his first big pet project. Legend first made his name on Philly's incense-clouded, '70s-obsessed neo-soul scene, then found his way to New York and became West's right-hand man in the studio. His patron's pop smarts serve Legend well--while many contemporary R&B records rely too heavily on a singer's cadence and skill to carry underdeveloped tunes, Legend and West have composed genuine songs like the perky "Number One," which has a lovestruck West jabbering that he no longer believes that "my heart don't got nothing to do with my penis." (It's way more convincing than Snoop Dogg's pledge of love on the next track, "I Can Change.") And even when the melodies are slight, West slides some nasty bass lines underneath, hinting at just enough of a hip-hop sensibility to keep the album from drifting into retro nostalgia. Yet Legend is no mere producer's plaything. His voice isn't immediately distinctive; he's neither as careworn as Anthony Hamilton nor as creamy as D'Angelo. But his gift for restraint sets him apart: the sex-as-drug metaphor of the title track is hardly fresh, but Legend delivers it smoothly enough to make it work, without pressing the issue. All bedroom come-ons have been used before. This late in the game, it's a matter of how well you use 'em. --Keith Harris

4 out of 5 stars Kinky Boots DVD.......2007-06-27

When shopping for the Kinky Boots Sound Track CD, Amazon popped up the movie DVD and I made the mistake of ordering that. It took a very nice vendor an several weeks (plus postage) to return the item.

I placed an order for the CD on 6/16 and am still waiting for it. It is taking a long time.

5 out of 5 stars Real Music!!.......2007-06-19

If you want to listen to REAL MUSIC, not none of this hoopla that's out now, you definitely want to buy this CD. for me, john legend gives us peace in the midst of a dying musical era along with others like anthony hamilton and musiq. while his first album is pure genius, the second proves that he is capable of reaching beyond the average expectations; he goes deeper with his sound and lyrics. i appreciate his sincere love for music because it's not compromised for a hit record; he has passion for it and, if you ever get a chance to see him in concert, you'll see and feel it too. I LOVE HIM!

4 out of 5 stars Definately a different sound.......2007-05-10

I enjoy the soultry voice of John Leggend. He is not my traditional R&B singer but I enjoyed the messages and catchy tunes of this album.

This is one of those wonderful CDs that is a complete listening experience. Every song on the album is wonderfully written and executed, so I really enjoy it. In fact, this album is so well produced, you'd think he was a Jackson!

One of the best ATL solo releases, along with Luda's Chicken and Beer, and Young Dro's Best Thing Smokin! Great album front to back!

5 out of 5 stars Urban Legend.......2007-01-13

This album is speakin da truth. this album is tight. This album shows T.I. digging deep to uncover his true identity, reminding us that he is a complex individual who has far more layers than you can ever see by looking at his face. He is outspoken, brash, confident on this CD. he spits out his innermost thoughts in that charming southern drawl that separates him from his peers. This album also shows many dimensions of T.I. taking us beyond the "trap".

1 out of 5 stars t.i. got no flow .......2006-09-30

t.i. aint no king of the south, first off no new school rap artist will ever claim that title... DJ screw is spittin in his grave over this horrible artist, Lil flip be a freestyle king from da south, we got them oldschool TRU boys who would rip T.i. apart, its just a matter of time tell T.I.'s one hit wonder falls off the radio or the bullets acually hit his scrony body

1 out of 5 stars Another Retarded CD From Another RETARD!!!!.......2006-08-24

DIS GY IS DA KYING OF DA SOUTH!!!

Give me a f***ing break. When are we going to stop seeing crappy rapper after even crappier rappers that are so full of themselves that they feel the need to plasture their faces all over every one of their crappy unintelligent so called albums!! Nothing descent to say at all, just a bunch of mindless [...]. I bet you they don't even like music, they just want to be a "celebrity" and be rich for 3 years(till their broke). If they really did geniunly like music, it wouldn't sound that sh**y!!!! GET OVER YOURSELVES!!!

5 out of 5 stars T.I at his best!.......2006-08-22

Let me start by saying that T.I is a breathe of fresh air compared to other southern rappers. He has excellent wordplay and you dont get tired of his style easily like other rappers(think Prick Ross and Doodoocris). Standout tracks: COUNTDOWN, BRING EM OUT, THA KING, MOTIVATION, ASAP, YOU DONT KNOW ME, MY LIFE, WHAT IT DO, WHY YOU MAD AT ME, PRAYING FOR HELP etc. Filler: Get your s--t together, Limelight,
Chillin with my b---h. Stand up couldve easily been a classic if it wasnt for Trick Daddy's lukewarm verse. The greatest is good but it suffers from lame hooks disease and get loose would be better without Nelly. Despite these flaws Urban Legend stands out as one of T. I's best albums.

Amazon.com

This double-disc reissue documents one of the more curious careers in country music. Both 1978's White Mansions and 1980's The Legend of Jesse James are Southern song cycles that were conceived by Britain's Paul Kennerley, then an unknown songwriter who somehow recruited a high-profile cast for each. A Civil War saga from the Southern perspective, White Mansions suffers from caricature and cliché but benefits from signature contributions by Waylon Jennings, Jessi Colter, and Eric Clapton. Jesse James has more focus and narrative momentum, with Levon Helm, Johnny Cash, and Emmylou Harris in lead roles. Though the albums are more noteworthy for artistic ambition than memorable material, Kennerley subsequently became a successful Nashville songwriter and Harris's husband from 1985 to 1993. --Don McLeese

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Legend of Jesse James.......2007-05-13

I had heard of this album in 1981 or so. Although I have the LP I wanted the
CD also. I really like the story telling aspect of this cd. Starting with the
first tract completely through the last. Also, the caliber of the singers
included really pleased me. Charlie Daniels, Johnny Cash and Levon Helm's
voices are so well suited for the characters that they portray. It also made
me interested enough to do a little history reading on the real Jesse James.
History would be a lot more interesting to people, I think, if more were
presented in such a well done way.

5 out of 5 stars A Gem.......2007-04-11

My husband bought the LP years ago and pretty much wore it out. When I bought this CD for him as a gift he was thrilled to hear elements of the recordings he says he never heard on the LP. We are both very happy with this CD and have told many of our friends and relatives who are interested in the history of the US during the civil war and post civil war period. I wish they would make a video of this even if they have to recast the parts with contemporary singers to replace those who have left this planet.

5 out of 5 stars Two Magnificent and Historically Accurate Song Cycles About the American South.......2006-09-01

I accidentally ran into the cassette version of "The Story of Jesse James" probably shortly after the cassette was released. My 35 year old daughter remembers well hearing it played over and over again, when she was a child. Naturally, the tape finally wore out and I had no idea where to find another copy. I felt an unbelievable sense of loss because of this for many years, until I recently decided to search "Jesse" on Amazon.com, hoping to find that it had been re-released as a CD.

When I found that "White Mansions", which I had never even heard of before, had been combined into a double CD set with "Jesse", I was ecstatic and I immediately ordered two copies of the set, one for my car and one for my house. I found that I had to immerse myself in hearing "Jesse", until my "thirst" for it had been satisfied, before I could bring myself to listen seriously to "White Mansions". However, the Civil War/the War Between the States/the War of Northern Aggression/the Late Unpleasantness, as it is variously called, has always extremely interested me and filled me with great sadness, especially since most people today do not understand the complexities of the war, its many heart-breaking aspects, and how lasting its influence has been on our country.

These song cycles are replete with superb music and equally superb singers whose voices fit the characters who tell the story of the Civil War from the Southern white point of view in "White Mansions" and the story of Jesse James and the James-Younger Gang in "The Story of Jesse James". These song cycles are most highly recommended by me, however, not only because of their superb music and vocalists, but also because they are historically so accurate. I am a history buff and I know Civil War history and the lives and activities of the James brothers and the Younger brothers very well. My only bone to pick with the cycles is the song "High Walls" on "Jesse". Although I enjoy the song greatly, I personally do not believe that Jesse James ever was so self-pitying, although he probably did regret the path that he had chosen, after he had matured and had become a loving husband and father who had decided to settle down on a farm with his family.

I most highly recommend this set to anyone who appreciates the best in country music, to anyone who is interested in the Civil War, especially those who are interested in the different points of view of its Southern caucasian socio-economic groups, and/or to those who are interested in the war's resulting production of some of our nation's most notorious outlaws. I am now also so emotionally involved in "White Mansions", as well as in "Jesse", that today, I literally burst out with a loud exclamation concerning what had just been sung in one of its songs, while I was driving my car, startling my friend who was riding with me and embarrassing myself!

5 out of 5 stars A secret treasure!.......2006-02-17

I bought "The legend of Jesse James" vinyl LP in 1980 when I was 17 and was immediately struck by the solid writing, emotional narrative and excellent musicianship found on this concept album. I remember "One more shot" got some airplay on country radio stations at the time, but without the rest of the album to provide the appropriate context, the single didn't have much impact. One listen to the entire album, and it's hard not to be impressed by this collection of country/folk/rock jewels.

This 2-CD set was my first introduction to "White Mansions", Paul Kennerley's original Southern Americana musical history lesson. This album is as well produced and the song writing as strong as on "Jesse James". However, this collection is not as emotionally engaging as the tracks on "Jesse James". The performances are all first rate and Waylon Jennings' vocals on this album are perhaps his best ever and proves that he was at his peak in the late 1970s!

Anyone that listens to this compilation of two great country concept albums will become instant fans. I sincerely hope more people will find this secret treasure.

5 out of 5 stars The CD to save if your house was on fire!.......2005-12-04

White Mansions and especially The Legend of Jesse James gives me chills when I listen to it. I grew up in Clay County,Missouri right up the road from the James Farm. This music is so authentic in the style and the way the voices sound as if they are truly Missouri locals. Anybody who knows the true outlaw story of the James Boys knows this cd is so dead on it will make the hair stand up on the back of your neck. Jesse James is not just a train robber but a true southern farmer turned guerilla who just wanted his money back from the Yankee Feds. This CD has the best I believe of Waylon & Jessi, Johnny Cash and Levon Helm singing in a southern rock style that will have you swilling sweetea out of a mason jar. If you like hog callers and mules, tobacco and whiskey culture and realize the Civil War really started on the southern Frontier in Missouri, buy this you will play it for years!!!

Will Smith makes a welcome left turn from his recent Hollywood McAction Film past in director Andy Tennant's romantic comedy. He is also the film's executive soundtrack producer, taking the opportunity to pay tribute to the R&B and soul that initially influenced his own musical career, as well as showcase its contemporary echoes. Vintage tracks represent Motown (the Temptations' classic "I Can't Get Next to You") and Philly (The O'Jays "Love Train") soul well, while the Caribbean rhythms of Jimmy Cliff's "You Can Get It," Martha Reeves' "It's Easy to Fall in Love" and Earth, Wind & Fire's pop-inflected "Reasons" testify to the old school's rich diversity. John Legend's new cover of Stevie Wonder's "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing" doesn't add much to the original, but other new cuts like the hip-hop/soul fusion of Heavy D and the Boyz' "Now That We Found Love," EW&F's collaboration with Kelly Rowland and Sleepy Brown ("This Is How I Feel") and Amerie's funk-charged "I Thing" offer up a tasty modern R&B groove. --Jerry McCulley

I'll be honest, I bought this disc for Amerie's "1 thing." I don't know why, but at the time, I had to have it (and even bidded on ebay for a British CD-Single! Thankfully, I lost, as it went for $26US!!) The rest of the disc is "okay." Three stars for the disc. Five stars for Amerie's "1 Thing."

5 out of 5 stars Found the club song.......2006-09-29

Like others, I went looking for the song from the club...I think this is it: Everthing but the girl: Five Fathoms, from the cd Temperamental. This song, gets the 5 stars. Good stuff.

I was very disappointed that the songs on this album were not a comprehensive list of the songs that I saw in the movie. It's a compilation of mediocre songs. Big disappointment.

5 out of 5 stars He's Great!!!!!!.......2006-06-05

I went to school with him and other than being extremley talented he's a sweetie too. He's always been a great singer, it's so so wonderful that he's made it, this is wonderful for him. I am truly so happy for him and all that he's done for him self!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless =0)

5 out of 5 stars A happy mix of Gospel, Soul, R&B and a tiny bit of Hip-Hop.......2006-05-10

Totally love this album. I must confess it was very VERY pleasent surprise when I receive this item and had the DVD with the concert. There is only one thing: I live in Europe and don't think I will be able to see the DVD.... but I also haven't tried. If I'll be able, I hope to have such good result from it as from the CD.

But I must say: the CD is NOT live (as I thought it would be when I purchase it). Nevertheless..... is FABULASTIC!!

Album Description

The King of the South is back with his highly anticipated Urban Legend. After spending a good part of 2004 dealing with legal issues, T.I. is now ready to take over. Months of anticipation created by underground tracks circulated throughout the mixtape circuit and some controversial moments have made T.I. the one to wait for. The lead single "Bring Em Out" will be a club anthem with great potential to go all the way at radio and video outlets. With special guest appearances from Pharrell Williams, B.G., Lil' Jon, DAZ, Ciara, Jazze Pha and production from Lil' Jon, KLC, Scott Storch, Swizz Beatz, Fury, DJ Toomp, KAO & Sanchez this album is sure to be a hip hop classic.

1 out of 5 stars THIS ALBUM SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!.......2005-05-22

I bought this CD at Barnes & Noble and I listened this album on the way to school on my headphones and it sucks. The only hot song on the CD is, "U Don't Know Me." Obviously, that is my favorite song on the CD. I rarely listen to it because it sucks and if I do, "U Don't Know Me," is the only song I listen to and I repeat the track over and over again. Nothing on this album is attracting besides that song. If you could give it 0 stars, that's what I'd give it. If you are looking for good rap, I suggest buying anything from Shady/Aftermath/G-Unit Records, like Eminem, 50 Cent, G-Unit, The Game, D12, Lloyd Banks, and Young Buck.

5 out of 5 stars King of da South!!!.......2004-12-18

Any T.I. fan should definitely cop this album.With throwed beats & remarkable wordplay, this album is da must have of da year. But I must warn all Lil' Flip fans, if U love Flip this ain't da album for U lames....

4 out of 5 stars South Fame.......2004-12-12

T.I is back with hotter beats, hotter guests and a lot more rhymes.
I really liked 'Bring 'Em Out (produced by Swizz Beatz), the great Westcoast flavour 'My Life' (Produced by Daz, Snoop Dogg's cousin), the track with Lil Kim was great too.
The solo tracks are very good, but the all star guests featured on the album really gives T.I another flavour.

8/10

The album has one big downfall though. Instead of bringing the hottest rappers from Atlanta today (Lil Scrappy, Ludacris, the amazing underground Frenchise Boyz), T.I.P insists of bringing his friends, the P$C etc, whose lack of skill effects the album.
