Release Notes:

We brought you the first release of this as a pre (and then were duped a couple of
times!) and now we bring you the remastered version!  It sucks though that a US
guy has to do UK releases.  What has happened with the "scene" over there?

One of UK Garage's first true stars, MJ Cole took the genre to new heights with
his 2000 album Sincere. From the start it was clear that Sincere was a landmark
release, heralding the birth of a new genre and bringing an exceptional talent to
the international stage. No surprise then that Sincere was nominated for a Mercury
Music Prize.

Firmly rooted in the UK garage scene, Cole was also a trained musician and it was
perhaps this training which helped him create his remarkable sound - at times
silky soul, at others rough R&B and hi-NRG, but always brimming over with energy
and vibe of the jungle, drum&bass and garage scene. Featuring vocalists Elizabeth
Troy, Caspa Nova, Concept Noir and Danny Vicious, the album contains tracks such
as 'Banderlero Desperado', 'Rough Out Here' and 'Attitude'. Unlike many other
albums of the time, Sincere remains as fresh and exciting now as it did on its
first release.
