Summary: Boyz II Men At There Best!!!
Comment: I've been a fan of Boyz II Men since there 1991 hit "Motownphilly". I also remember growing up listening to them and always hearing them on the radio. What great memories. I got to see them live back in 1995 and it was a spectacular performance. Still to this day, my favorite track by them is "On Bended Knee". It is a very inspiring track. Other outstanding tracks include "End Of The Road,I'll Make Love To You,A Song For Mama,Water Runs Dry,and It's So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday". Even though they still record and tour to this day, they may not be what they used to be back in this era, but they will always remain one of my favorite r&b/pop groups of all time. I recommend this album to you!

Summary: Great melodies, great singing
Comment: When listening to music, no matter what the genre, the first thing that will get my attention is a catchy or beautiful melody. This is why I love Boyz II Men. This album is chalked full of beautiful melodies sung beautifully. I can't even figure out which are my favorites! Interestingly, it wasn't as big a hit as some of the others, but my favorite is probably "Water Runs Dry" because it's just so unique! Love all of this!

Summary: Classic gentlemen with talent
Comment: "...their success based on romantic ballads and strong vocals. However, they lacked the charisma and looks to really make an impact on the world,..." by Amazon's Jake Barnes.
When it comes to TALENT and clear SKILL these gentlemen clearly possessed that and more. From their moment of arrival it was evident they were more than just your average group of pop males. Yet to state that they lacked charisma and looks is a unncessary comment with regard to what they do: sing. How about limiting your remarks to the groups dynamics and ability to bring to life melodies and harmonies better than any other group then or now? Making an impact on the world is clearly another way to say the popover success was not there because they were a minority group.
The Legacy album is an example of what is missing in todays music: talent and the ability to revamp classics for a new age. I appreciate Boyz II Men because they do what they do exceptionally well. If you like the classics and the sound of individuals that can actually sing and bring a nice sound to your ears, get this album.

Editorial Reviews:

Legacy is the right title for this album. Boyz II Men were the original, modern-day boy band, predating both 'N Sync and the Backstreet Boys. Heavily influenced by doo-wop groups such as the Platters and the Dells and developed by ex-New Edition member Michael Bivins, Boyz II Men quickly rose to heavyweight status after the foursome's 1991 debut, Cooleyhighharmony, their success based on romantic ballads and strong vocals. However, they lacked the charisma and looks to really make an impact on the world, and they're perhaps the only group that could be described as "quietly" selling 35 million records. This collection of their best moments concentrates on their strengths as crooning Cupids, exemplified by their massive hit and classic ballad "End of the Road" (taken from the Boomerang soundtrack). "Hey Lover," featuring LL Cool J, is as energetic as the album gets. Legacy is unabashedly assembled for lovers of slow, romantic bedroom soul. --Jake Barnes
