Off to the Races carries a very emotional theme throughout the album. Lead single “Lover Come Back To Me” and “When Your Love Has Gone” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. It has been fourteen years Donald Byrd’ last studio CD, “Off to the Races” which won Array Grammy Awards and was nominated for album of the year. Smart music for smart people.
When Your Love Has Gone is a strong cut, one of many. Sudwest Funk gets you up and jumping. Paul’s Pal - arguably the best track on Off to the Races album. If you are a Donald Byrd fan, you will love Off To The Races. Strong, powerful vocals of Donald Byrd in Down Tempo are very impressive.
