This is the debut album from Andre and to me you can really see the greenness he has. He does a weird cover of Adele's "Hello" which sounded unique in its own way, as the majority of the tracks are centered around the Saxophone. I thought quite a few songs sounded very similar to one another as nearly every track was centered around the Sax which Andre plays. I would have liked to see more versatility, but for the debut album it is not too bad. Tracks 2, 5, and 9 were pretty decent.
