          The nonstandardly utilised classic formulas. Superb written tracks for all the instrumental lines. Only very exotic person could write such music. I love it, I found myself in these tunes! Sergio Walking

          5 out of 5 stars Straight Ahead R&B From Lenny White & Friends.......2004-11-16

          Lenny White,drummer for Return To Forever in the mid 1970's and solo jazz fusion artist later in the decade,began to dive into standard R&B/funk on his 1978 solo album 'Streamline' and emmediatly after that formed Twennynine-an R&B/funk cmobo who scored a hit in 1979 with the classic "Peanut Butter".This is the bands self-titled 1980 follow up,and for all concerned it leans very heavily into the R&Bsy side of funk,featuring alot of male/female vocal exchanges,slick production values and the requisit horns.It's all together very typical of early 1980's funk/R&B in general,with one important factor-it's completely devoid of even the one ounce of jazz fusion always present on any Lenny White album.The sassy,humorous funk of "Kid Stuff" most resembles Twennynine's 'classic' sound as heard on their debut 'Best Of Friends'.Otherwise "My Melody","Fancy Dancer" and "Just Right For Me" set the tone for the album-straight ahead grooving R&B and light funk with no fusion referrances.Only the brief snippit "11'th Fanfare" reminds the listener who Lenny White was.So as an example of Jamaica,Queens's
          then thriving jazz/R&B/funk musical community in the early 80's 'Twennynine With Lenny White' is a treasure.But those looking for White's more bombastic and anthemic 70's jazz fusion will not find what they're looking for here.So for what it is this is well made and concieved album.

          5 out of 5 stars Well,Well,Well!!!.......2004-11-17

          This is Twennynine's final album,as well as they're third.Compared to the previous album 'Just Like Dreamin' is more updated and showcases a heavier electronic backdrop more typical of the early 80's,as well as strong writing.The first sides set of songs "Rhythm","Twennynine" (the bands first ecknowledgement of the then burgeoning rap scene in New York),"Movin' On" and "Don't Look Back" are all presented in a nonstop segueing groove married to a great upbeat rhythm and a strong funky R&B groove and NEVER let's up-this is one of they're best sets of songs.
          The final five songs are a totally different animal.The title cut is pleasantly smooth while the funky "Need You" brings to mind Ray Parker Jr's recent work with Raydio on the
          'A Woman Needs Love' album of the same vintage.'All Over Again' is a dull,weak ballad,"All I Want" is better at that,mainly because by the middle it transforms into the funkiest on this album-this band were never big on slow tunes when they made them."Find A Love" is a great song-another great R&B-ish funk workout.So this serves as an excellent career ender for this very short lived band.What happened to them I don't know but Lenny White has moved on to greener pastures.But if Twennynine did get back together in the future on somebody's early 80's
          funk version of 'Bands Reunited' I would be glad to see it,right along with Loose Ends,The SOS Band,Dayton and other likeminded 80's funk outfits.
