"From the Soul of Man" is the sophomore album of R&B singer Kenny Lattimore.

Biography

Critics uniformly lauded this album as a great leap from his debut on the scene 2 years prior to this largely mature effort. [cite web|url=http://www.inmusicwetrust.com/articles/16a01.html|title=Kenny Lattimore - From The Soul Of Man (Review)|author=Sylvia White|publisher=InMusicWeTrust.com] The album opens with the first single "Days Like This," an introspective midtempo R&B track with avant garde electronic inflections. "Days," along with 7 other tracks on the album were co-written by Lattimore.

A highlight is Lattimore's faithful and yet individual cover of Donny Hathaway's "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know," first heard on Hathaway's landmark "Extension of a Man" album. Lattimore also reimagines The Beatles' "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" as a soulful ballad that closes with a hypnotically layered arrangement of background vocals. "Who knew that 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' could be so sexy?" remarks Michael Gallucci. [amg|10:gbfwxq8jldfe~T1|From The Soul Of Man (Review)]

Adding synergy to the album was the bonus inclusion of the gently soaring ballad "Love Will Find A Way," a duet with Heather Headley from the Disney movie "".
