Amazon.com Handsome British trio BBMak break away from the Backstreet Boys/'N Sync axis with a debut album the sounds of which revolve more around guitar-driven pop-rock rather than synthesizer-heavy big ballads and attempts at hip-hop cred. With classic-sounding vocal harmonies and arrangements reminiscent of a cornucopia of '90s lite-rock stars, the disc is well produced and particularly likable on its first few mid-to-uptempo cuts. It's when the group slows down, as on "Ghost of You and Me" and "I Can Tell," that it starts to come far too close to Richard Marx territory for comfort. Though such tracks don't display BBMak at their best, they're unfortunately the ones that radio programmers may be most likely to embrace. --Rickey Wright

Really good CD July 30, 2006 Amy E. Barker (Virginia) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
BBMak was a British trio who wrote their own songs and played guitars and had pitch-perfect, 3-part harmonies. I became a fan in 2000 after hearing their hit single, Back Here, on the radio. Because of their looks, they were lumped into the "boy band" category alongside NSYNC and Backstreet Boys.
BBMak's music is acoustic pop/rock aimed at teens.
I definitely recommend it.
Brilliant! April 17, 2006 cosmo (around home) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
A good solid Cd. What I love about this band is that they wrote their own stuff, and could play it...AND sing it! They also had a unique way of trading verses; One guy would get the first, the next guy the second and so on, then all would sing the chorus. I also really liked that they all had voices that blend well; close enough to harmonize perfect, sounding almost like one person. But just slightly different tones and octaves, so that each verse had "their" own sound to it.
Of course personally I think that Christian Burns had the best voice and could have easily been on his own. But still...all together, they sound great!
The whole album is good, and I can listen to the whole thing non stop, but my fave is "Ghost Of You And Me" there is a catchy, haunting sound to the singing.
So in the end; Good album I'd recommend to anyone. And as the Brits say "Brilliant!"
One of the best group albums... October 29, 2005 Jam (California, USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have been a fan of BBMak's since day one...back in 2000...5 years later, I find myself STILL listening to both albums. Its sad that they were lumped into the whole boyband craze but then again, it was good timing. I wish they had lasted longer and I hope that this group comes back to write some more great music. Not only are they gorgeous but their songs, harmonies, everything are FANTASTIC!
My fave studio album ever September 20, 2005 pcplus 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Every people have a fave studio album. This one is the mine.
The BBMak best album, an only one sound. Amazing. Today there is not much acoustic albums, this is what you need.
Not just a man vocal group, like Backstreet Boys, much less NSYNC
The trio is between a Rock band and a boyband.
The music of this cd: Pop-Rock Acoustic & Soul, and a little bit of Folk
Each song is amazing, but the best songs are:
Back Here (The BBMak hit!!)
Still on your side
Ghost of you and me
I'm not in love
Love on the outside
Love is leaving....
all songs

"Sooner or Later" Review - June 10, 2005 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
This remains one of my favorite CDs that I own. I'm not ashamed to admit it. It was one of my first, and it got me through my 3rd and 4th grade year. I never got their second CD, but I'm guessing it's just as good. This is one of the CDs I own where I will listen to it and not skip a track. Some may joke about me liking BBMak. Hey, some don't even know the band. Personally, I'd rather people not know, because if people did know "back in the day" (which would be 5 years ago or so) I really think they would have blown up and then every female in this country would've made them into another "N'Sync", "98 degrees", and "Backstreet Boys" band (this is "only" a bad thing because they become popular).
Though they have broken up, which I also recently just heard (I'm still hoping it's not true), I recommend getting this album. Sometimes I'll turn off the radio and listen to "Sooner or Later". It reminds me about when everything was pop and lyrics actually meant a little something (heh, no offense).
I was lucky enough to listen to them a while back, but this is one of the CDs where I seriously don't think it will matter if you start listening to them now. All that matters is that you listen to them.
Reasons To Get This CD:
1. It has actual meaningful lyrics
2. They're great musicians (...or were...)
3. Because you won't regret it. Believe me.
Until you're back here, baby...miss you, want you, need you so...
