Smooth crafted some of the nicest tracks of the early 1990s. Backed by exceptionally smooth production flaunting a heavy jazz influence, the duo brought forth original, intelligent lyricism that addressed a wide variety of issues. Their first record, <I>All Souled Out</I> (1991), gave listeners a taste of their easygoing style; they followed a year later with the indisputable classic <I>Mecca and the Soul Brother</I>. Rock's skills behind the boards were exceptional, with deep, sample-laden hooks and seriously funky beats. C.L. came with buttery verses, rocking the mic with casual flows that were strong but relaxed, wordy but tight. A solid album from start to finish, <i>Mecca</i> also yielded their biggest hit, a saxophone-fuelled, deeply personal song about family called "They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.)." The duo's third album dropped in '94 and they split soon after. Pete Rock has continued to excel as a producer, steadily making hits for artists like Nas, Run-D.M.C., and Rakim. - Brolin WinningBoom Bap/Ninetiesen720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 11:23:51 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.69186&rws=%2Fpete-rock-and-cl-smooth%2Fdiscography.rss Hailing from Mt.
