All My Love is the fourteenth studio album by American singer Peabo Bryson. It was released by Capitol Records in May 1989 in the United States. The album marked Bryson's first release with the label after four years with Elektra Records.[1]
Critical reception
AllMusic reviewer Ron Wynn called All My Love "immediate and satisfying. This album was not only one of his strongest in many years, but such songs as "Show and Tell" and "Palm of Your Hand" got widespread urban contemporary airplay, and D'atra Hicks got a career boost from doing a duet with Bryson on the album."
