12 Inch Collection Music Review

Average Rating: (4.5 out of 5 stars) 4.5 stars

4 stars A Decent Collection Of Astley's 12" Hits!
Rick Astley was without question one of the later 80's best new singers with a voice that hardly matched his looks. Starting out with his first hit "Never Gonna Give You Up", he quickly released "Together Forever", "She Wants To Dance With Me" and numerous other songs. The problem is, he released too much music in a span of several years. The music began to be too formula, mostly due to songwriters Stock-Aitken & Waterman who also wrote songs for Dead Or Alive, Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Donna Summer. This collection contains most of his big hits with the exception of "My Arms Keep Missing You" which was one of my personal favorites! While rather expensive, this cd may be the only way you'll ever own these 12" club mixes (unless of course you own the 12" vinyl singles).

This CD collects 12" versions of songs by the popular R&B group. Hall & Oates' 12 Inch Collection brings together a cache of alternate mixes of several of the duo's hits. However, it should be noted that this set is geared toward the dance club and would generally be of little interest to those looking for familiar versions of "Private Eyes" and "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)," which ...

Wild Cherry Super Hits CD (2002) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Japan

12 Inch Collection

$27.85
"Play That Funky Music" is the highlight of this compilation from American '70s funk band Wild Cherry. This 2002 compilation shuffles most of Wild Cherry's charting hits and combines them with a larger number of album cuts. "Play That Funky Music," along with the other singles that almost no one remembers -- "Hot to Trot," "Hold On," "I Love My Music" -- are included. "Baby Don't You Know," the mildly successful "Play That Funky Music" sound-alike that became the group's second hit, is not. Everything the group did was unfairly compared to "Play That Funky Music," so the remainder of the Wild Cherry catalog is deserving of more attention; still, this disc will be more than enough for most casual fans of disco and funk. ~ Andy Kellman Japanese ...

Lee Moses Time & Place CD (2002) Bonus Tracks; England; Reissue; Remastered

$21.79
Lee Moses' 1971 LP on Maple Records called Time and Place has long been the Holy Grail for R&B and soul collectors, and one listen to this Atlanta musician's scratchy and funky guitar playing and his raspy and throat shedding deep soul singing style should be enough to convince anyone that he was indeed a great lost soul treasure. Moses, who died unsung in Atlanta in 1997, recorded a handful of singles for the Musicor, Dynamo and Gates imprints in the late '60s and early '70s as well as that sole LP, and Castle Music has finally put all of it together in what is essentially a complete recorded works package. It's easy to hear what all the fuss is about. This guy was the real deal, playing and singing with an uncommon passion and tracks here like the powerfully emotional "I'm Sad About It," the funky and name-checking tour de force "Got That Will," and the stunning ballad "My Adorable One" (there are two versions of this song included here, and both are gems) should have been huge radio hits in a fair and equitable world. Also impressive are the instrumental versions of "Reach Out I'll Be There" and "Day Tripper" which were originally released as a doubled-sided single by Musicor in 1967, both cuts exhibiting an engagingly ragged and soulful exuberance that still sounds fresh and vital forty-odd years later and show Moses to be a finely nuanced and undeniably funky guitarist. But it is Moses' searing vocals that will garner most of the attention, which is as it should be. Taken as a whole, this edition of Time and Place sounds like a secular gospel meeting with Moses' singing passing for a fired-up preacher's impassioned sermon as he shouts, growls and purrs through the ins and outs and the ups and downs of love as convincingly as any soul singer one can name. That Moses never had so much as a regional hit seems criminal and his death in 1997 in complete obscurity is an incalculable tragedy. Big thanks go out to Castle Music for bringing these remarkable lost treasures of Lee Moses back into the world.
