Amazon.com essential recording
For those music buyers who have enjoyed Barry White's music since the early 1970s but may not be devoted enough for the three-CD box set Just for You, this 20-track compilation brings together all of White's major chart hits between 1973 and 1979, along with a couple of entries from his Love Unlimited Orchestra. White's distinctive vocal style--a deep, resonant baritone-bass that oozes sex appeal--was the icing on the cake for those hits; superlative string arrangements (courtesy of the late Gene Page) encased White in a lush setting, while White's hand-picked rhythm section (which included many of Los Angeles's top session players) created a groove that was hard to beat. The combination was lethal: hits like "Never, Never Gonna Give You Up," "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe," and "You're My First, My Last, My Everything" made White a chart staple and an early king of disco; his skill as a vocal interpreter was fully evident on a 1979 reading of Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are," another standout on this collection. On the evidence of that track alone, it's hard to believe that, according to legend, White never planned to be a recording artist in his own right and would have been happy to remain in the background as producer and songwriter! --David Nathan

The most hot-buttered of all soul singers, Barry White is an artist whose CDs come with a purpose. To say what that purpose is, is not for a family Web site--but it involves that thing that Mommy and Daddy do at night with the bedroom door closed. All-Time Greatest Hits collects the essential White and Love Unlimited Orchestra tracks onto a packed CD. Are 20 cuts too much? Not with Viagra. That's a kind of medicine that grownups take. --Gavin McNett

The man who taught me my way around a mixing board used Barry White's "Let the music Play" for his theme song. On the wonderfully inventive comedy Ally McBeal, Barry White music was a central theme. In one of the offices I work in regularly this album is in heavy rotation for mellow background music.
But let's face it, music that can make a man the size of the late Mr. White into a sex symbol, is the kind of music that can get your sweetheart in the mood for love. This album has most of the hits by Mr. White that you might hope for as well as a wonderful cover of Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are"
So here's the deal, if you are in the market for some "mood" music, you can't go wrong with this CD!
Barry Whites Greatest! June 16, 2008
A great compilation of Barry Whites' greatest. Stunning orchestral arrangements that blended popular music to the incredible beauty of so many different instruments which allow the emotions his music creates to soar into the grandness of his presentation. He had such a broad range of talent. His wonderful voice presents us with the deep richness any woman would love to be sung to with; but he also sings the lyrics with feelings that leads you to believe he understands the emotions he is singing about. The songs included are truely his greatest selections and they are just as I remember when I first heard them a long time ago!

 I Like It July 12, 2007
This is a very good albun. It has a lot of the songs he does that I love. I think the sound could be a little better but it is probably from earlier recordings. I still am glad I got it.

I was very happy with the quick shipment. Originally I had purchased this item for a last minute mother's day gift and it actually arrived a day early.
