90’s hit makers Boyz II Men imbue a well-chosen set of r&b chart toppers from the 50’s and 60’s with their distinctive sound while paying homage to the arrangements that enhanced these gems when first recorded.  This respectful approach enhances the trio’s take on the Flamingos’ memorable version of “I Only Have Eyes For You” and the Drifters’ “Up On The Roof”.  Other standouts include the Maurice Williams hit “Stay” and Little Anthony and The Imperials “Tears On My Pillow”.
