Hitsville USA: The Motown Singles Collection 1959-1971

Hitsville USA: The Motown Singles Collection 1959-1971 (1992) more music like this

by Various Artists

Instead of following Stax/Volt's pattern and delivering an exhaustive box set containing all of their singles, Motown decided to limit their singles box, Hitsville USA: The Motown Singles Collection 1959-1971, to four discs that concentrated on the hits. There are a handful of wonderful lesser-known songs here, such as the Contours' "First I Look ...

Essential Collection

Essential Collection (1999) more music like this

by Gladys Knight & the Pips

There have been many Gladys Knight & the Pips collections over the years, yet few have drawn from all periods of their career. Hip-O's 1999 compilation Essential Collection does, beginning with their first hit for Vee-Jay, "Every Beat of My Heart," and ending with their last R&B number one, 1987's "Love Overboard." It doesn't feature every hit ...

Best of Bond...James Bond: 40th Anniversary Edition

Best of Bond...James Bond: 40th Anniversary Edition (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

One of the signature aspects of a James Bond movie is its theme song, and, as demonstrated on this collection of those songs, there is a remarkable consistency to them. 1962's Dr. No, the first Bond film, featured Monty Norman's "James Bond Theme," a distinctive instrumental piece that has figured in every Bond picture since and that leads off the ...

Ultimate Divas captures every aspect of pop music's queens, reaching back to Judy Garland's "Over the Rainbow" and Lena Horne's "Stormy Weather," and flashing forward into the present with songs by Annie Lennox and Tina Turner. In between one finds great performances like Billie Holliday's "My Man," Ella Fitzgerald's "Someone to Watch Over Me" and ...

by Various Artists

A fabulous assortment of artists from different areas of the rock genre give a glorifying tribute to Curtis Mayfield in a sparkling 17-song package.

The Christmas Album

The Christmas Album (2002) more music like this

by Gladys Knight & the Pips

Gladys Knight & the Pips' The Christmas Album was recorded for Buddah in 1975, just as they were coming down from their peak popularity. They were still in fine form, and The Christmas Album is an excellent example of a good '70s soul holiday album. There are a few weak moments here, and "Jesus Is Just All Right With Me" doesn't really belong on a ...

At Last

At Last (2000) more music like this

by Gladys Knight

At Last, Gladys Knight's first studio album since 1995, offers a much-welcomed return by the gifted vocalist who easily adapts to contemporary music without compromising her signature sweet tones. The 13 tracks featured on At Last are a blend of mid-tempo R&B fare and ballads. Because Knight seamlessly incorporates a 2001 music sensibility to this ...

Good Woman

Good Woman (1991) more music like this

by Gladys Knight

After performing with the Pips since 1952, Gladys Knight parted company with them in the late '80s and became a full-time solo artist. Good Woman wasn't Knight's first solo album (she'd recorded a neglected solo album in 1978), but it was the first to do anything commercially. Like her final recordings with the Pips, Good Woman found Knight taking ...

Before Me (2006) more music like this

by Gladys Knight

At a time when most of her contemporaries are satisfied reliving their glory years to appreciative audiences in casinos and theaters, Gladys Knight continues her refusal to be pigeonholed as a soul singer. With 2000's At Last, she returned to the mainstream R&B circuit with a session of adult contemporary R&B that was equally accessible and ...

The Look of Love: The Burt Bacharach Collection (1998) more music like this

by Burt Bacharach

While this three-CD, 75-song box set only has a half-dozen tracks actually credited to Burt Bacharach, it's certainly the best representation of his music likely to ever be assembled. Spanning the late '50s through a 1996 duet with Elvis Costello, this is the cream of his work as a composer (and, frequently, producer), properly concentrating ...

The Very Best of Burt Bacharach [Rhino] (2001) more music like this

by Burt Bacharach

Like Rhino's exquisite three-disc The Look of Love, this set does not concentrate on proper Burt Bacharach recordings. Instead, it contains versions of Bacharach's greatest songs, usually the greatest versions -- or cuts that are damn close to the greatest versions. And, really, that's what makes it magical, since Bacharach wasn't the best ...

With the onslaught of greatest-hits compilations available, it's hard to decipher which versions are truly thorough and definitive. However, this Gold edition is truly something special.

Miss Gladys Knight (1978) more music like this

by Gladys Knight

The year 1978 saw the release of no less than three new albums by Gladys Knight and/or the Pips. Together, they recorded The One and Only for Buddah -- and the albums they recorded separately were the Pips' Callin' on Casablanca and Knight's Miss Gladys Knight on Buddah. This vinyl LP was Knight's very first solo album; not until 1990 did she ...

Unlike most nostalgia-driven compilations, Once Upon a Song is free of the filler that has bogged down like-minded discs through the years. Focusing in on story-songs from the 1970s, a number of the best ones are here. Launched with what may be the ultimate example of said, Don McLean's timeless "American Pie," the tunes here veer from ...

And what would a 60's love compilation be without the Delfonics' "La, La Means I Love You," or the Toys' "Lovers Concerto?" Every selection's a heavyweight from ...

The Gladys Knight volume in the Legacy/BMG Beautiful Ballads series is primarily post-Motown, and covers the years 1971-1983. This should not be a letdown to anyone who followed Knight & the Pips' career during those years, simply because these were some of her greatest during the era and include 1973's "Midnight Train to Georgia," from ...
