Product Description

Between the smashes of On the TLC Tip and Fanmail, TLC made CrazySexyCool, on which the trio made an ill-advised bid to out-diva groups like En Vogue. Despite their premature stab for respect, the albums contains one of the trio's signature tunes: "Waterfalls", a wistful take on unrequited love that was wise beyond their years. They didn't match the tune until the release of Fanmail, on which the ladies fulfilled the promise hinted at here. --Bucky Wunderlick

I brought this CD when it was first released, a few years ago. It was permently on my CD player then, and now years later im still listening to it. Its one of the best albums ive purchased, an would recomend it to any R&B fan, even if TLC's latest album didnt do anything for you, this one definatley will!

Every artist has thier essential album. You know, the LP that set them apart from the others and (in some cases) made them international superstars and hot property in the music world. For TLC, "CrazySexyCool" was this LP. The album gave them hit after hit with the still-incredible "Creep" and "Wateralls" amongst them. A more mature and smoothed-down sound to thier first release, this album showed the group had grown up - and so had thier lyrics. The vocals were stronger, the lyrics more important and the production had a more classic sound to it. Truth be told, this album is probably one of the most important from 1990 and without doubt in R&B history.
The album plays like a dream, and you'll rarely want to skip a track. That said, there are some key stand out tracks. Aside from the singles, the haunting and meaningful "Sumthin' Wicked This Way Comes" is thought provoking in all the right ways. A cover of the Prince classic "If I Was Your Girlfriend" is, suprisingly, excellent even though god knows it could have fallen flat on it's face it hasn't. Stunning vocals and production here. "Switch" is rough and ready and is delivered as only as the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes knew how (R.I.P). But, truly, this album has no weak tracks for me, personally. Even the interludes add something (The Interlude Titled "Sexy" is truly hillarious). A stunning album that was desserving of the million-sales and total praise that it achieved.

Crazysexycool is by far the best album TLC or anyone else have done... ever. Not only has it got some really hot tunes, but the messages it delivers across like in "Waterfalls" about safe sex are typical of the girls.... This album has gone 11x Platinum, the biggest selling album in the history of RnB and Hip Hop. A must buy for any RnB fans.

My God this still sounds as fresh as it did when it was first released. I had this cd then and remember it made quite a splash on the music scene back then. However, for the life of me I do not know where my original copy went so had to get it again and I am glad I did. This is a fantastic album, it just flows so smoothly, each track and interlude just join each other effortlessly. TLC were definitely an R&B girl group to watch and had promising careers ahead, although the rest is history so they say. It has the well known tracks 'Waterfalls', 'Creep', 'Redlight Special' but to be fair I do not think there are any weak tracks. I also feel that they cover Prince's 'If I was your girlfriend' exceptionally well. It hasn't been off my cd player since I received it.

I have just bought this album for the third time. The first two CDs were played very regularly over the 17 years (can you believe it?!) since it's original release. It would be silly of me to list my favourite songs, as it would literally be the entire track list! Every track is strong enough to stand on it's own two feet. But, put them all together, complete with the various intro's, and this album becomes an event!! In much the same way as the band, really. All three members are very talented and individual, but when you combine their strengths, they become an absolute force of nature!
If you have only heard the singles, and enjoyed them, PLEASE do yourself a huge favour and grab hold of this album and listen to it in it's entirety. I guarantee you will be transported into the crazy, sexy, and oh so cool world of one of the most successful, and influential, groups of the last century.

Terrible
If for "Very Good" you think of a yellowed, torn, bent and tatty cover. This one is for you.
Never use again.
