Exceptional Service Review...
My purchase experience was exceptional. I had made this purchase for a loved one that is in a program that has some limits if they can receive mailed items or not. This seller immediately contacted me to let me know the mail had been rejected and inquire if there was another address to mail it to. I gave them the 2nd address and it was immediately mailed to me before the intial deadline for the first address at no additional cost! Way above and call of duty in customer service. The product was in excellent condition like new. I daily enjoy this product in my car. No complaints at all just compliments! Thank you Highly recommended!

Smooth R & B......
Being a fan of Alicia's,"As I Am" was actually the first album I bought from her. Sorry I never purchased this one ,the time it came out,but finally did.Wow,"A Classic" indeed. Just great from beg. to end.I rarely give an album 5 stars but had to for this one. Knew the songs,but just one of those things.Now that I do have it,it will always be one of my all-time faves.Karma,You Don't Know My Name,If I Ain't Got You,Diary and Dragon Days highlight this superb effort.If you are one like me,who never purchased an album of hers,but a fan,this would be "The One" to buy first."Songs In A Minor " will soon follow. You will be truly amazed!!!!

Her Diary = A Fine Chameleon....
"The Diary Of Alicia Keys'" puts Beyonce, Shakira, Underwood, & all of todays female artists from every genre of music in the bargain bin. The album starts with the classical song "Harlem's Nocturne." Her Piano playing is superb, then a choir joins in aided by a fine beat. "Karma," is adriven song that uses Alicia's vocals at their best. "Heartburn," has a good drum beat as her raw vocals compare her lust for a man with the title. "If I Was your Woman/Walk On," is a jazzy version of Isaac Hayes-"Walk On by."
"You Don't Know My Name," is a 1970's finesse ballad. It is a refreshing female version of male angst, the spoken interlude in the middle fits perfectly. "If I Ain't Got You," sounds like a mix of gospel & Aretha Franklin. This may have Alicia's best vocals on this album? The brass behind Alicia's Piano added elegance. "Diary," is a fine gentle song. It sounds like it came off of her debut album. This one was my favorite of her Sophmore album.
"When You Really Love Someone," seems like a cross between "A Woman's Worth & Fallin?" I would call it the former part two. "Wake Up & So Simple" are too familiar & the latter has some annoying sounds. "Slow Down," is reminiscent of Janet Jackson's "Lets Wait Awhile." "Nobody Not Really," is lighter & has a less cloudy or dark feel as if the day was just starting. She wonders who will be interested in this her diary? Obviously, several million to date & with good reason. This is a fine album.
