Ever play an album.until you got tired.of it.this album is one you just want too play it a lot.its just great. I miss you al.

Heard this album in '81 and was instantly taken by the great arranging, Al's wonderful voice, Steve Gadd's amazing grooves! Jazz and pop never had a better meeting. This album is inspirational and joyous! From "Distracted" and "Alonzo" to "Spain" this album is a true classic and it transcends the years! Enjoy!

My aunt use to play this album in the summer of 1980 I was a young boy playing with my toys. She would play Distracted over and over and sometimes would just let the whole album play. I grew to love this album. The song Alonzo I loved especially, the heavenly sounding ending always brings tears to my eyes. Years later as a young man I heard this song played on the radio, I had not heard it in years and it took me back to my young years.

The song Alonzo will always be my favorite. I went to grade school with an Alonzo was killed in the Army in the mid 80's, he was a class act.

The song, "Alonzo" is so beautiful; reminds me of the time that my daughter came into the world...Weclome Imani!

This album was the very first album that I heard from him. From that moment I was hooked and I never gave it back to my music teacher. I was a freshman in high school, I have followed him in concerts for the last 31 years and I hope to catch him in Germany in April at the jazz fest.

every single one. I have so much music, it is hard to listen to everything on a regular basis - I hadn't heard Al Jarreau in a while and decided to play "This Time" and instantly remembered why I was so in love with this album when it was released. Don't hesitate - buy it.
