I was lucky enough to see ES live twice in my lifetime. Once at a scooter rally in the 80s, and once, a year or so before his untimely parting from us, in Peterborough.

I saw him perform at the Cresset Centre in Peterborough along with Freda Payne and Martha Reeves on the "dancing in the street" tour. No disrespect to Freda or Martha (they were brilliant), but it was Edwin's show. It was an all-seater venue, but as soon as we'd heard the first few bars of "stop her on sight" there wasn't a flat seat in the house!

A more unassuming man you couldn't wish to meet - despite his immense talent. He shook hands with us all after the show and seemed genuinely surprised at our adulation. The man was pure class and a true ... Read More:

The late Marvin Gaye remains one of the most definitive male voices in Soul music. He truly was an utter genius and had such a creative and artistic flair. He remains one of the key influences with todays new generation of wannabe Soul/R&B singers.

In October 1982, Marvin released his first (and his last) studio album for CBS Records, after fleeing from Motown Records in a bid, much like Diana Ross' exact reasons for escaping Motown, for wanting to exert total control over his career, an exercise he was most certainly capable of. The album would be the classic, Midnight Love, which though offered no social commentary or made any sort of profound political statement like much of his previous efforts had, it still stands as a compelling, ...

Another collection of Stevie Wonder's earler songs which never fail to impress. Although the tracklist is somewhat short, this album contains a few of the many Stevie Wonder classics, including the beautiful 'My Cherie Amour' and the uplifting 'For Once In My Life', a version which is yet to be bettered by those who choose to cover it. This CD is short enough for any occasion where you need a quick blast of Stevie Wonder magic to brighten up the day - turn it on, crank up that volume and listen to one of the most amazing voices ever to have been laid down on vinyl!!!

I've been a fan of Stevie's since I was a teenager back in the late 60's. I believe that he is one of the true greats from Motown and this is one of his best albums. "Ain't no lovin'" is a song of joy by someone that has found his true love which is echoed later in the lyrics "For Once in My Life". As a teenager I thought "God Bless the Child" was a Wonder creation until I grew older and learnt that it was a Billie Holiday and Arthur Herzog Jr composition. Nevertheless Stevie Wonder makes the song his own and evokes the hard times that prevailed when the song was written.
"Sunny" written by Bobby Hebb has been covered by at least 40 other singers but Wonders is the definitive version. Again he's singing about someone that he has fallen in love with ... Read More:

I've followed Keith Sweat from his first live gig at the Hammersmith Apollo in '87 right through to this album & he never fails to produce the goods. His first album - Make it last forever is a MUST for any soul / R&B fan and if you like that then you'll buy every other album that followed it! This album has many of his all-time greats but in my opinion leaves a few off too. But what can you do? Ther are so many quality Keith Sweat tracks - You can't put them all on. I'm glad to see so many of his first album are on this (6 out of 8!) and also superb tracks like "nobody", "get up on it" and "twisted"! Overall a must buy even if you have (like me) every album he has released anyway. Keith Sweat... Keep it comin' baby!
