After the commercial successes of THE REVIVAL and SONS OF SOUL Tony Toni Tone returned with HOUSE OF MUSIC, the trio's most mature and critically lauded collection to date. The album-opening "Thinking of You" seems like a long-lost classic culled from the vaults of Al Green. "Lovin' You" is informed by Stevie Wonder's most sensuous funk, and "Top Notch" even has a bit of a psychedelic slant to it. The group continues to demonstrate its deft ability to craft sensuous ballads; "Til Last Summer" and "Holy Smokes & Gee Whiz" demonstrate a well-honed mastery of the form. Throughout, HOUSE OF MUSIC is spiked by sweet vocal harmonies and sharp guitar work.
