this was an instant classic, this was her best so far,also it was a very well recorded cd (sound quality wise and music wise) but george duke always record in full digital,and this combo with dianne is no exception. the songs on never too far are rich,powerful and are well delivered. the song with stanley clark ,we belong together is excellent,heard on the right system (come in),the vocals and the music is thick, detailed and very full sounding. this album is complete. the range of her voice excellent the songs are very meaningful and forfilling to the the soul. it hard to find recordings like this nowadays.
