Review by Wayward December 25, 2005 (9 of 9 found this review helpful)
Buyer beware - there is currently a Non-SACD version of this title on storeshelfs. Both apparently have the UPC code of 92642.
The SACD version is housed in a digipak case whereas the Non-SACD version comes in a jewel case.

Performance:   Sonics:
This is a bargain--if you like his music. 30 cuts, over 80 minutes of music, and 25+ pages of liner notes.

This brings back childhood memories. It's very well recorded. I wasn't familar with many cuts, but I am now. I've listened to this album about 5 times over he past week.

Highly recommended.

Aug. 24 Update: I bought both Keep Moving On and Portrait. Both have a lot of music and very few cuts in common. However, after owning these albums for a couple months, I clearly prefer Portraitbut am still glad I bought both. Both albums are highly recommended.

Performance:   Sonics:
Stellar collection from possibly the greatest male vocalist ever. What more is there to say? Quality is excellent as well. One of my favourite SACD titles period. Remastering is phenomenal. I had an old 80s Sam Cooke Man and His Music collection which literally sounds like AM radio - one of my worst CDs ever so this release was an eye-opener.
