McCauley, Angie Stone, MC Lyte, Freedom Bremner, Sinead O'Connor, Shauna & Lorraine Phillips, The Shining Light Gospel Choir (vocals).Includes liner notes by Moby.18 was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Pop Instrumental Performance.Includes a bonus DVD.Continuing to deliver the kind of soulful electronica with an ethereal sheen that made PLAY such a breakthrough album for him, Moby keeps the good vibrations going on the equally engaging follow-up 18. Having previously drawn from such disparate sources as subtle dance beats and samples of African-American spirituals, it's not surprising that this devout Christian once again looked to the church for recruits. This time around the talents of The Shining Light Gospel Choir (the revival-like I'm Not Worried At All and the sweeping In My Heart) and the recently ordained Sinead O'Connor (the lush Harbour) get tapped.Moby avoids making 18 a strictly austere affair by throwing some beats onto the barbie in the shape of the thumping Angie Stone/M.C. Lyte collaboration Jam For The Ladies and the subtle cut-and-paste funk of Sunday (The Day Before My Birthday). Moby does a fine job manning the mike himself for the striking '80s-style electro-pop meditation We Are All Made Of Stars and the equally gorgeous soundscape Signs Of Love. Ever the sonic chef, Moby has once again succeeded in whipping together a collection of songs that are the musical equivalent of comfort food.[Reviews]Rolling Stone (5/23/02, pp.77-78) - 3.5 out of 5 stars - ...His impolitic insistence on stroking his pop-star ambitions...has been good for his music, forcing him to master the pop virutes of melody, variety and rhythmic drive...Spin (1/03, p.72) - Ranked #29 on Spin's list of 2002's Albums of the Year - ...Somber like a Sunday afternoon.Entertainment Weekly (12/20-27/02, p.126) - Ranked #8 on EW's list of 2002's Albums of the Year - ...The tracks that merge his trademark aural wash with sensual female R&B voices from the '60s and '70s are some of the year's most rapturous music...Q (12/02, p.66) - Included in Q Magazine's The 50 Best Albums of 2002.Q (May 2002, p.105) - 4 out of 5 stars - ...Its music is more sensitive, its emotions more personal and...what's on offer is a closer, more inviting experience....They're songs rather than cleverly arranged loops...technically complete and emotionally raw...Alternative Press (5/02, p.77) - 8 out 10 - ...18 makes PLAY sound like a what-if experiment in techno blues...Everything is bluesier, achier and more awestruck....Moby's contradictions give 18 its depth and forgive the extrapolation of PLAY's blueprint...CMJ (5/13/02, p.4) - ...Moby the composer and musician emerges as an emotional lover of soul music and R&B....features a batch of diverse, uplifting and melancholy songs...Vibe (June 2002, pp.147-148) - 3 out of 5 - ...Moby reveals a weary, wary soul on...18....setting samples of blues and gospel recordings from the '30s and '40s to a mournful, contemporary beat...n

...A bit slow off the ball I know but I've only just bought Moby - Play. Sitting here as I write, listening to it, I have to say it is an excellent album. I didn't realise that Moby had actually wrote alot of the songs on the album until I heard them.
To anyone who thinks they have never heard a Moby song - chances are that you have. Most of the songs on the album have been used in films or adverts - many will surprise you!
It definately is an album to chill out to and possibly one of the best I've got. Well worth it and just a final note if you are going to buy it why not check out my comment on CD-Wow.com - one of the cheapest CD retailers around....

...in my opinion, moby is a very talented artist. his music is good and he also has some very interesting videos to go with it. i like the one where he is being reincarnated by a women who looks like she has never seen the sun before she is that pale! moby needs to grow some hair as is baldness makes him look a lot older than he actually is. although people say that his music is more spiritual then anything i still think it is good and i would definetly reccommend it to anybody who thought of buying his cds!...

...I can't really find anything good to say about this tune. Which is a shame because Moby used to be a good producer. When he was coming out with things like the classic, "Go" from the early 90's I liked his work. Now it sounds like hes making depressing indie music. Moby, cheer up a bit and get back to your former self! The only radio staion that seems to give it airplay is Radio 1 anyway so that says it all! I haven't heard the album, lets hope its not as dire as this...
