It's Alright With Me/Released - Patti LaBelle

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...that blighted much of the mid-1980's US music, but we do have THAT voice to compensate for it. Running order: Sweet Freedom / I'll Be Your Angel / Ya Mo B There / I Keep Forgetting / Our Love / Some People / On My Own / No Looking Back / Any Foolish Thing / That's Why / What A Fool Believes / I Can Let Go Now What we have here are three types of songs: the slower love songs, the uptempo feelgood numbers and the duets. Let's begin with the latter as they are among his best-known and most popular hits. Ya Mo Be There, with US R&B singer James Ingram, was a massive hit, number 1 in the US charts for six weeks. It's a gospelly paen to the Heavenly Father, him upstairs, God. Whatever your views on that subject, the sheer expression alone on the vocals here is worth hearing. On My Own, co-sung with Patti LaBelle, is a wistful tale... Read review

Advantages: great addition to the collection showing another side of this great singer
Disadvantages: none

...This is a great CD for a quiet night in. Romantic ballads as well as a fantastic duet with Patti La Belle. Great songs well worth listening to. Easy on the ear. Great lyrics and tunes. Favourite has to be "Someone for me" Can imagine yourself as the singer - not singing but re enacting the lyrics Travis Tritt shows his gentle and romantic side showing he is an artiste who can adapt to anything and pull it off well Never stopped playing it since I bought it !! nearly worn it out so will soon need a new copy. Fantastic and well worth the money - a must have for any Travis Tritt fan Buy the "Rockin' Side" to make the perfect duo... Read review

Advantages: A few good tracks (album price worth 4-5 songs good)
Disadvantages: A bit repetitive in places.

...A Woman is pretty good too, but I would still recommend the original over it any day. He then does a duet with Patti LaBelle (as for who she is, I don't know), with We're Not Making Love Anymore, a slow, depressing failed love story. I tend to skip the last 3 tracks as I don't really like the sounds of them, but for anyone who is a Michael bolton fan, I would recommend the album for you. As for how much you would pay for it, the best bet is to shop around on the internet (its likely to be cheaper). Enough said. If you don't like it, you won't have wasted a fortune on it....
