Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0602498612002 Label: Geffen Records Manufacturer: Geffen Records MPN: 000156712 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Geffen Records Release Date: December 09, 2003 Studio: Geffen Records Editorial Review: Amazon.com: His style lodged somewhere between neo-soul revivalism and the ongoing tradition of love-man blandishment, Avant makes a good showing on his third album, Private Room. Recalling Marvin Gaye in lush style, a nod to "Sexual Healing" (the whispers on "Heaven"), and even by name in one lyric ("Hooked"), he posits a derivative but pleasing stance. Most surprising is "Have Some Fun," which backs its affirmative message with an inventive, piano-led track, a snaking melody line, and a stack of vocals that tease the ear. Not everything here rises to that immaculate level, but never does the music rest on anything less than imaginative craft. Avant's love for sound and emotion show throughout this hour-long performance--one that R&B lovers won't regret picking up. --Rickey Wright Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - avant is my favorite male artistloveeeeeeeeee avant so much his music is the real deal i love him so much this album is real tight i have aall of avant albums Rating: - ???This CD sucks! The melodies are alright but the lyrics are so stupid I can't even fake it Rating: - Avant- Private RoomWell this is Avants best work yet. Anything could have beaten Ecstasy. Thank god he at least brought his game back up to at least a passing level. This album is pretty much like his previous two albums in that, its not stellar, but in My Thoughts case, it gets the job done. If nothing else this album will at least satisfy die hard Avant fans such as me lol. The problem with AV is that he always has a tendency to play it safe. Which can be good and bad. I can definetly say this is his strongest album ...

On the lead single "Read Your Mind," for instance, at a key point in the song, everything stops while Avant lets out one of the loudest, lustiest sighs in the history of recorded music. The follow up single Don't Take Your Love Away was just as strong. Most of the tracks on PRIVATE ROOM are in the time-tested ... Read More Rating: - CHANGED OUR LIVESI can't really explain the title of my review without giving you our history. I won't do that, but I will say we're engaged now. Avant's lyrics helped us realize what we wanted. This will forever go down in history as one of my favorite albums of all time. I can't listen to Don't take your love away and You got me without getting all sentimental. If you knew what we've been through, you'd know why, just take my word. It's special to us. LOVE YOU AVANT. |
