Unconditional Love is the eighteenth studio album by American singer Peabo Bryson. It was released in the United States by Private Music, a division of the Windham Hill Group, on April 27, 1999. Bryson, along with Regina Troupe, produced the majority of the album himself but also worked with Masaru Nishiyama and frequent collaborator Robbie Buchanan on several tracks. It peaked at no. 75 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.[1]
Allmusic editor Andrew Hamilton found that Bryson "still exudes a highbrow persona on this late-'90s CD, excelling on "Did You Ever Know," "Ain't Nobody" (the old Rufus song), the umpteenth rendition of Leon Russell's "A Song for You," "The Gift" (a duet with Roberta Flack), and "Light the World," with Deborah Gibson. Pure Peabo, but it carbons previous albums and is only essential to a completist."[1]
