(2 Customer Reviews)
Kenny Rogers sure can write 'em, and even those who dismiss the country-pop star's catchy, well-written commercial fare will know half the words to the tunes on 21 NUMBER ONES. This EMI compilation is not the most comprehensive Rogers collection on the market, nor is it necessarily representative of his best work as an artist, but a listen through these 21 tracks will make one thing clear: Rogers's songs are an indelible part of the fabric of American pop culture.
Kicking off the with "The Gambler" (still one of Rogers's most infectious and enjoyable tunes), 21 NUMBER ONES hits all the usual suspects, from the Lionel Richie-penned "Lady," to the twangy feel-good parable "Coward of the County," to the epically romantic "She Believes in Me" to "Lucille," Rogers's breakthrough crossover hit from 1976. There are also plenty of the duets Rogers is famous for, including ones with Sheena Easton, Dolly Parton, Dottie West, and Kim Carnes. Longtime fans will most likely have all of this material, but as a primer on the superstar's biggest hits, it's hard to find a better collection.
Personnel: Kenny Rogers; Dolly Parton, Dottie West, Kim Carnes, Alison Krauss, Ronnie Milsap, Sheena Easton, Billy Dean.
Recording information: 1977 - 2005.

21 Number Ones
$11.49 By 1993, when Bryan Adams released his first collection of greatest hits, he had enjoyed 12 years in the music business during a span that had seen hot trends like new wave and late '80s hair metal fall by the wayside. Adams managed to stay popular by sticking with an ear-pleasing brand of rock & roll that veered between edgy, bar-band style riff rock to more earnest, American-style roots rock in the tradition of Bruce Springsteen and Bob Seger.
SO FAR SO GOOD gathers all the essential Adams tracks from his hugely popular '80s albums. This set of melodic rockers, inlcuding "Run to You," "This Time" "Kids Wanna Rock," and "Summer of '69" will be familiar to anyone who was near an FM radio during the ...

21 Number Ones
$5.65 Principally recorded at Bradley Film And Recording Studios, Nashville, Tennessee between June 1, 1955 and Janurary 27, 1960.
Digitally remastered by M.C. Rather & Hollis Flatt (Custom Mastering, Nashville, Tennessee).
Patsy Cline had nothing to do with Sun Records in her lifetime, although she does share a few other similarities with that label's favorite son: both Cline and Elvis Presley began their recording careers in 1955, both became huge pop crossover successes, and, well, both recorded extensively with the Jordanaires. Eerie coincidence? You decide.
Cline actually recorded for Four Star between 1955 and 1960, and while she was already trying her hand at the smooth pop that would make her a star on Decca in the early '60s, she was still enough of a country girl on the tunes heard here to embrace cryin' steel ...

$11.39 Yahaloma ------ Kim Thomas is Yahaloma and Yahaloma believes in using talent to serve a higher purpose. Entertainment is certainly its own reward but here is an artist that finds profound reasons to entertain. Here is passion for not only music but also its place in the heavens – and for YHWH. Can't Live Without ... ---- Contemporary Hebrew Gospel and inspirational artist Yahaloma embraces music as a need in life, something necessary for existence. For that reason, it is the perfect medium, especially with its unique communicative abilities, for Yahaloma to honor YHWH and spirituality. “I can't live without singing and writing. It is in my blood! I was created with this in my system, and it makes me who I am. I feel that I am doing what I was created to do when I do music.” For Yahaloma, music is a YHWH-given talent and the proper respects must be made – all while creating top notch music for the 21st century believer. Prayerful Potency ------- People don't always think of music as praying. But praying is communication with YHWH and music is the great communicator – and it gets the emotions involved. “I always say, 'He who sings, prays twice!'” ... I just love what I do.” It's a simple fact. Yahaloma loves music and YHWH and pours 100% into both. Inspiration --------- There's a deep implication for the idea of musical inspiration when spiritually-oriented music is involved. “I am inspired by Abba, Yahweh.” Though of course there are connecting influences in the world's realm. “I have many influences, but the biggest is family. They give me the support that has kept me going, even when we couldn't see where we were headed.” Work -------- Yahaloma has earned best song of the year acclaim from Eagle Productions for “Not My Will” and made it to the second round of the International Songwriting competition as well as top 1500 of the Billboard World Songwriting Contest of 2007. Thomas began her musical journey at the age of 4, participating with her mother. Within a year's time she had already nabbed a slot as the mini-host on a Manhattan cable series. She was the lead vocalist in Nature's Vibe, who opened for George Clinton and P Funk, She went on to perform with Walter “Clyde” Orange of The Commodores. She has the honor of having been involved with the “Who Hears the Cries' music project, which appeared on the 46th Grammy nomination ballots a whopping 8 times. She is at work on her thrid CD following the success of her second, “My Everything". Visit www.myspace.com/kimthomasramos for more information. Review -------- “Many artists can entertain. Few can inspire.” - A&R Select ----------------- Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up. - Thomas Edison. ------------------- Knowing who you are and whos you are means more in the long run than you would think. Be confident even in the face of uncertainty! - Kim Thomas.Comments:*Joseph Israel's Comment:"Shabbat shalom My Sister . You are a great artist. I look forward to working with you. YAHWEH BE WITH YOU!!See ...
