171.Songs by: Luther Vandross
September 08, 1997
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

>>More Details
Music : Songs
I felt driven to write a review of this superb album here after reading the bizarrely ambiguously two-starred one before me. I miss Luther in the same way as I miss Marvin, both of whom, in my opinion, came from some higher plain to visit us and leave something that would make our lives better.
The effortless way in which Luther Vandross delivers a song can leave you breathless just witness the opening track Love the One You're With and Killing Me Softly ( with his song).
this is not just one artist's interpretation of other people's songs these are chosen and obviously the songs all mean something very special to Luther. This album could very well become a desert island disc.

Possibly THE soul album of the 80's. Serious songs dealing with insecurity, heartbreak and at times the more sensual side of relationships this was Vandross' creative peak before his A+R dept. couldn't decide how to market him and his voice became frequently wasted on poorer, less adult music. Although often written off as some sickly 'lurvve' man this album highlighted the insecurity and doubt which is the core to many of the man's best songs. The string arrangements on numerous songs, particularly 'Other Side of the World' are innovative and highlight how musically redundant most of the current 'bump and grind' music is. Although never hitting the heights of the 70's this album proves that 80's soul was not the drum machine wasteland it sometimes ... Read More:

It's as if Lionel was finding his feet as a solo artist and perhaps should have waited artistically instead of releasing this as it stood. I found this slow and dull with nothing to lift the spirits really. Better was to come though.

Music : Luther Vandross: Greatest Hits 1981-1995
I bought this album not really expecting to much from it,alright, there was the chart material that most people know and enjoy,but I was pleasently surprised to discover that this compilation is of a very high standard and consistently so.Luther genuinely had a fantastic voice,with a superb soulful delivery to equal the best in this genre.Some very catchy numbers with fantastic eighties sounds.If you like eighties R'n'b pop,this album or an album by this artist is an absolute must.I feel songs such as 'Never to much' deserve to be recognised as genuine classics in the pop genre.A very enjoyable album.

Quite simply as good as it gets. You could literally walk into any R&B/dance/funky house etc, etc, club in the world, put this on and get away without a DJ for a couple of hours. The version of 'The Crown', with Stevie Wonder laying on a few guest vocals, is 10 minutes of heaven. Buy it!
