Incognito's third album nods to the influences that ground their jazz-funk-and-soul jams. The 11-member band adds a Latin feel to a snazzy cover of Stevie Wonder's "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing," while "Magnetic Ocean" has a Weather Report-in-ballad-mode vibe. "Change" combines Maysa Leak's Chaka Khan-like power with sweeping Soul II Soul-ish strings, and "Need to Know" gives props to Roy Ayers (check the clavinet) and Rick James (horn section). The band is at its best showcasing Leak or featuring soloists, as on "Colibri" and the Mandrill-ish "Closer to the Feeling." Still, some attempts fall flat, like the syrupy "L'Arc en Ciel de Miles" that's more Chuck Mangione than Prince of Darkness. This one's for smooth-jazz aficionados; Brit-funk fans should check the band's later fare. --Suzanne McElfresh

 Tribes Vibes + Scribes May 10, 2008
Raymond E. Ruby (Portland, Oregon)
This disc is nice. It's funky energetic and sort of back ground good if you know what I mean. It is a sort of history disc for me, because 8 or 9 years ago, I bought Positivity. Since I bought Positivity, I have bought just about every Incognito disc since. None of them, in my opinion has ever matched up to Positivity. So, having never purchased TVS, I thought I would see what it was all about. It's good, don't get me wrong, but they just quite didn't know what to do with Maysas beautiful vocals yet. Interesting, if just for music trivia's sake.
However, they get everything right on Positivity. It's a must have. Every song is good, even the mellow ones. If you have a kick'in Hi Fi setup,the recording is absolutely flawless. I know this is a review for TVS, but I wouldn't want anyone to buy this one and be slightly (maybe, maybe not )dissapointed, without owning the Incognito Crown Jewel.
Happy Listening.

Ain't no doubt about it, this is good music. No correction; this is great music. The Cogs brought their A game on this one. It really is a standout release. Highlights are numerous, but the one that knocks me out is Maya's powerhouse delivery on I Love What You Do For Me. Man! Such emotion.....and what a voice!!! Do yourself a favor and pick this one up.
Nominee: Most Refreshing Musicians - Incognito March 15, 2006
A. Simon (Los Angeles)
I have been a fan of the musical genius Bluey and this band of musicians for many years; and they continue to amaze me with their dynamic sound. The refreshing brand of music that Incognito continues to create is a real delight and totally overshadows the roster of manufactured faddish so-called performers currently getting radio airplay. A must have for your Incognito CD collection!
Love it August 22, 2002

I have three CDs by Incognito: Tribes, Vibes & Scribes, Positivity, and 100 Degrees and Rising, and this is my favorite of the three. For some reason, "Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing" is my absolute favorite track...it gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. :)
