A-

Details Lead Performance: Tony! Toni! Tone!; Genre: R&B

On their third outing, the Tonys return with a 15-song tribute to the classic soul of Motown, Sly Stone, and Isaac Hayes. It's good to see a young act -- they actually play instruments, mind you -- give props to those singers and styles that have paved the way. It's fresh, funky, fierce, and it feels good.
