Let The Music Play!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
This collection speaks for itself! Thirty songs and not a single dud! What is here is essential and entertaining. If there is any flaw I can find it would be this: Is this collection suppose to be just Barry White: SOLO artist? There are a few collections from Love Unlimited Orchestra, but still I don't have a problem with it.The really great thing about its collection that it included his 1990s hits "Practice What You Preach" and "Stayin' Power" which is better than his 1994 "All-Time Greatest Hits" on one CD. If you are a fan, but are still not sure about his box set, then this is your ideal pick. Highly recommended!

Barry White : The Icon of Love,
By Todd Foster (UNited States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
Many people of my generation were probably placed upon this planet because of Barry White. The late master of love was even an icon to the new generation because of his appearances on "Ally Mcbeal". He provided the soundtrack for sex for the entire disco age. Now with the rerelease of what is astetically a greatest hits collection, he should be discovered by generations to come. He prolonged the seduction. He stretched out the verbal foreplay until there was nothing to do but the physical act. And the songs were foreplay on their own. "It's Esctasy When You Lie Next To Me","Staying Power", and the true classic"Can't get Enough of your Love,Babe" are just testaments to this man's musical genius and his love of love. Barry White, thanks for putting me here and the fun in Heaven got a lot more vocal and a lot more fun.

Two discs of pure BW,

This review is from: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
Its rare that a best of collection gets it right, but when the artist is involved that usually helps a lot. That was the case here & Barry White oversaw this two disc set of his best work put together lovingly & with care. What an awesome style The Maestro had back in the day. Lush strings, heavy beats, guitar riffs, and that nice blend of his deep bass vocals with the female back up. The Man could really create an atmosphere and he made an awesome body of work in the 70s, bringing both soul & FONK. Most of the singles are included, and it also captures his work in the late 80s and his big comeback in the 90s. 'Practice What You Preach' is still the killer jam of 94. This is a great and near complete overview of The Maestros sound & career, and a perfect introduction to his back catalogue. In my opinion everyone should check out all 8 of his classic 70s albums but ifyour wallet says no this is a great piece to own. How I miss this guy, there will never be another Barry White. R.I.P.
