Biography

{{cquote|...From the Soul of Man is heightened by the strength of Lattimore's impressive voice, which effortlessly transform from a deep, smoky alto into a bright falsetto--always sounding pure and sublime.[1]|||Vibe Magazine, 10/98, p.178}}

Critics uniformly lauded this album as a great leap from his debut on the scene two years prior to this largely mature effort.[2] The album opens with the first single "Days Like This", an introspective midtempo R&B track with avant garde electronic inflections. "Days", along with 7 other tracks on the album were co-written by Lattimore.

A highlight is Lattimore's faithful and yet individual cover of Donny Hathaway's "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know", first heard on Hathaway's landmark Extension of a Man album. Lattimore also reimagines The Beatles' "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" as a soulful ballad that closes with a hypnotically layered arrangement of background vocals. "Who knew that 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' could be so sexy?" remarks Michael Gallucci.[3]

Adding synergy to the album was the bonus inclusion of the gently soaring ballad "Love Will Find a Way", a duet with Heather Headley from the Disney movie Simba's Pride.
