Never Felt So Good is the second full-length album by R&B singer-songwriter James Ingram, released in 1986.[4][5] It reached number 123 on the US charts, and peaked at number 37 on the R&B charts. It reached number 72 in Britain.

Critical reception

The Los Angeles Times wrote that the album "is dominated by inferior upbeat material and undermined by punchless production. The few ballads should be the high points but they're woefully schmaltzy."[6]
