On MY NAME IS JOE, sensational soul man Joe picks up where his last album, 1997’s ALL THAT I AM, left off. Basically, ladies, Joe wants to be your full-time lover. And with a dreamy voice that sounds like a cross between Donny Hathaway and Sam Cooke, he sure sounds like a viable candidate. But just in case his bedroom voice doesn't connect, his seduction-heavy lyrics spell things out. "Somebody Gotta Be on Top," for instance, isn’t exactly about climbing the corporate ladder to success. Meanwhile, when it comes to risqué business, Joe is willing to change his, um, missionary position for the steamy "Table For Two," which finds the singer offering to make his lady the main course ("let me eat it up, gonna start at you toes till I heat it up). With the album's thoughtful lead single "I Wanna Know," Joe's added yet another notch to his hit-making belt. But there's plenty of extra ammo here, including his duet with Mariah Carey, "Thank God I Found You," which is also included here. Like his mono-monikered peers Maxwell and D’Angelo, Joe is well on his way to becoming a household name.
