Album Notes

NEW BIRTH n [New Life, Second Wind, Re-genesis, Renewal, Renaissance, Resurrection, Redemption]

The Timeless Classics: "Dream Merchant," "It's Been A Long Time," "I Can Understand It," "It's Impossible," "Wildflower". The list goes on.

The Story: The ever soulful and timeless New Birth has continually maintained a strong presence in today's musical market as evidenced by the repeated use of their music. Either as re-makes or as samples, their music and musical style has experienced a resurgence. This new album is classic New Birth for today's market. You can dance to this music, drive to this music and make love to this music because this is real music and we all know that real music makes us feel good.

Today's New Birth consists of the nucleus of the New Birth sound. Brother's Leslie and Melvin Wilson (lead singer and 2nd lead singer/writer/producer respectively) have reformed the group and are happily back to doing what they do best... making and performing the music we all love to hear.

Having been in the music business for so many years, Melvin and Leslie have seen their share of coming and going. The thing that makes New Birth extraordinary is the classic, timeless beauty of the songs they perform and the memories they evoke in people. Music has always been New Birth's first love, and that's why they put a special effort into everything they do. It's all about the audience.

It is almost impossible to count the times that fans have approached Melvin and Leslie to let them know what their music has meant to them, how it has become a marker in their lives, a first kiss, a first love, the birth of a child and so much more. To them, this is the real reason they continue to bring New Birth to the people... it makes them feel good to make us feel good. "Although it's been an up and down road, I wouldn't have missed a minute of it," Melvin reflects. "New Birth will never stop."

I was once again blown away again by these wonderful songs, performances, incredible tight harmonies and very well, crisp and tightly recorded and perfectly edited songs fro this Album, "Liftime."  And even with still that Clasic R & B style I also hear a stong, original up to date, new and unique sound all it''s own that is to me one of the biggest reasons why this ALbum has done as well as it has and still continues to be going strong with all Listners young, middle-aged, old... EVERYBODY... Just like Earth, Wind and Fire, they as Leslie and Melvin Wilson and The New Birth Band have a flawless, impecable, respected, and totallly adored and admired sound that is in it's own and on it's own, a style like no other...and Their own...

New Birth never has, and never will let you down, this CD is Hot!!!
author: Robin Russell (original New Birth Drummer)
                            
The setting is warm, the flow is smooth.  Leslie and Melvin's vocals are as strong, soothing, and powerful as ever. Barney Thomas has done an excellent job of caputring and re-creating the New Birth sound, it's full of love and life.  If you love New Birth, you will love this CD!!!

Super Classy Soul for 2004
author: Barry Towler (Soul Express)
                            
Leslie and Melvin return to spearhead the rejuvenated New Birth for 2004.  What the gents serve up here is a delicacy of real soul with a traditional basis and a modern twist.  No ersatz R&B grooves here.  Chunky, funky and romantic flavours are the order of the day.  Fun Is In The Chase, Workin' On You, Ten Toes Up, Hey Girl and To The Light are just what the doctor ordered.  This is an essential purchase.  CD Baby come up trumps yet again!
