No es lo mejor, si no una parte de lo mejor. Submitted on: 2008-05-09 |
|
| Mismo que el CD diga que es lo mejor de "Love Unlimited", solamente algunas músicas pueden asi ser llamadas, destaque para "forever in love". Algunas músicas no merecian estar en el CD y otras deberían estar.Merece la pena por cuatro o cinco músicas, las demás....... |

The band that backed up "The Maestro" Submitted on: 2006-06-01 |

Though he was not the first artist to mix classical strings with popular beats and rhythms, Barry White's unique blending of the two made him a standout on the musical scene of the mid-70's through the early 80's. This compilation represents the best of the orchestra that provided the background to many of his hit singles, as well as charttopping tracks released as solo performances from the group.
Most "best of" collections leave out some fan favorites. This one is no different, for most of the cuts are culled from the ensemble's 70's releases, starting with "Rhapsody in White" (1974) and ending with 1979's "Super Movie Themes, Just a Little Bit Different". Although the group would release four more albums in the 80's, none of those albums are represented here; thus, a more inclusive offering may be in the future.
This reviewer would've preferred that, along with the "Theme from 'King Kong'", the orchestra's version of "As Time Goes By," the group's killer reworking of Isaac Hayes's "Theme from 'Shaft'" had been included.
However, that is crying over spilled milk and this album is still a fine introduction to the group that helped to supply the "silky soul" to the singer with the "bedroom delivery." |

Is "Loves Theme" from a 1974 movie?? Submitted on: 2005-08-11 |
|
I am trying to find out if the track "Loves Theme" comes from a movie in the same year (Feb.1974) that this single reached No.10 on the British Pop Charts, and stayed for 3 weeks.
I really enjoy the arrangement of this melody which is my favourite disco tune of that era,next to the "Saturday Night Fever"album. |

Great Music BUT.................................. Submitted on: 2004-02-05 |

The single star isn't for the Music on this CD which is fantastic. The single star is for this reason - How can you have a 'best of' without the group's finest track? The tracks on this CD are very good but for whatever reason 'Strange Games And Things', the track in question isn't on it. Maybe it was due to licensing problems but surely some deal could have been done? As it stands they were in the ridiculous situation of putting out a 'best of' compilation without their best track! The mind boggles. |

some of the best music I ever heard Submitted on: 2003-01-10 |
|
| This here is some of the music produced by barry white who took r&b to new levels with the styles he conducted with this tight orchestra here and plus these songs have been sampled numerous times over the past decade still these are classical and masterpieces if you are into this stuff this is for you. |
