| | Top Bill CD Bill Withers Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
A budget-priced ten-song Bill Withers compilation containing, as its name implies, most of his biggest songs. There are no notes, and the repertory jumps from Withers' early-'70s folk repertory ("Lean on Me," "Ain't No Sunshine," "Another Day to Run") to his mid-'
80s soul sound ("Watching You Watching Me" and "Better Off Dead"), with heavy synthesizer backings, etc. The difference isn't as jarring as one expects, however -- Withers' voice was as good as ever on the later repertory, and he is in his element in both settings; what's more, his songwriting, if focused very differently, is still clever and results in some very lively and alluring material. The sound is excellent, utilizing the best mid-'90s remasterings. ~ Bruce Eder Purchase Top Bill CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Bryan Ferry Boys And Girls CD (1985) Remastered

Ferry's first solo effort since the second breakup of Roxy Music is arguably his best, in part because it continues in the direction the band had been going. It's like AVALON, only more so.
Here, Ferry's lounge lizard affectations are writ large; the lyrical pose is all bruised romantic fatalism (say hello, "Slave to Love"), and the music fits it like a glove. The album's soundscapes are lush and echo-laden, and nearly every track has a discreet disco pulse; "Valentine," the one exception, is mid-tempo reggae. Overlaid with skittish percussion and guitars, BOYS AND GIRLS is the aural equivalent of a white dinner jacket and a half-empty bottle of champagne.

Laura Branigan's third album capitalized on the Euro-dance-pop and affecting ballads that made her an international star while allowing her to grow as a vocalist. Her collections, always uneven in terms of material, benefit mostly from her stellar voice, and this is no exception."The Lucky One" and "Heart" start slow and build to a crescendo, perfectly showcasing her range without being obvious. The title track, about finding sex in the seamy side of town, sparked a bit of a controversy, but ended up being her second biggest hit. The song itself works, but Branigan was never a sex bomb, so the fact that she pulls it off is indicative of her power as a performer. "Ti Amo" is the album's ...
