Very Best Of David Whitfield Vol.1, The (The World Of David Whitfield) - David Whitfield

Advantages: The superb Ball Of Confusion and the sublime Papa Was A Rollin' Stone
Disadvantages: None

...collection. They also made renowned classics such as the jamming, Get Ready and Ain't Too Proud To Beg. The alternating lead vocals between the forceful, aggressive delivery of David Ruffin and the sweet, sensual falsetto of Eddie Kendricks marked an interesting transistion in their work. David Ruffins voice mostly sounded seemingly angst ridden especially on the magnificent, (I Know) I'm Losing You. Other than Smokey Robinson, a large portion of their work was produced by Norman Whitfield. What Whitfield encapsulated with his work with The Temptations was blending late 60's trends of Pop and Funk into this groups output, giving it a healthy balance and therefore making The Temoptations strong innovators with their music.

Guetta was number one in clubs, his album was a succes. People didn't know that before becoming the king of the night, he was a musician. Blaster is his second album if you don't count F*** Me I'm Famous ( a compilation of the best songs on Ibiza ). He knew that everyone was expecting a confirmation or a failure. But he did. He made a very explosive album. For me, Love... Read review
