    Bobby McFerrin‘s amazing ability to switch back and forth between bass notes and falsetto, along with his talent for jumping octaves, made this record quite a virtuoso showcase. […]

    charlesl7 @ RateYourMusic
    It’s a shame that McFerrin is largely only remembered for his pop hit “Don’t Worry, Be Happy”and not for this album, where his incredible vocal talent is displayed in all its glory. […]

    Robert Christgau
    One reason the voice is such a sublime instrument is that it can pronounce wordsand give or take a catchphrase or two the only ones he bothers with here are his own lyrics for “I’m My Own Walkman. […]
