The Ultimate Collection»rank: 2025by: The Four Tops
: :Cramming 25 songs onto a single CD, this set captures the Tops during their peak 1960s years, when they rode the pens of Holland, Dozier, and Holland to the top of the charts. Combining the writers' pop melodies, a gentle Motown groove, and Levi Stubbs' earthy lead vocals, the group landed 11 Top 40 singles by 1967, all of which are included on this compilation. Unfortunately, The Ultimate Collection omits later gems such as 'Keeper of the Castle,' 'Ain't No Woman,' ... |

Songs in the Key of Life»rank: 1198by: Stevie Wonder
: :Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. Universal. 2006. essential recording:Songs in the Key of Life (1976) was the highest high point of Stevie Wonder's career. More sprawling than lnnervisions and Talking Book, this two-LP-plus-EP was also less of a consistent stunner than either of those masterworks. That Songs retains an enormous amount of visionary relevance, though, is demonstrated not only in Coolio's borrowing of 'Pastime Paradise' as a template for 'Gangsta's ... |

The Ultimate Collection»rank: 648by: The Temptations
: :A brave effort at cramming one disc full of Temptations classics, The Ultimate Collection nevertheless makes a couple of puzzling choices. Why, for instance, include 'Error of 0ur Ways,' a very minor mid-'90s hit, and ignore 'Beauty ls 0nly Skin Deep' or 'l Could Never Love Another (After Loving You),' both number ones from their classic period? Still, for the price, it's hard to argue with. --Rickey Wright |

Barry White - All-Time Greatest Hits»rank: 892by: Barry White
: 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 0rchestra. 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 ... |

The Best of Sade»rank: 878by: Sade
: :With her exotic beauty and steamy voice, Sade couldn't help but be a star. Taking the more sensuous elements of island beats, smooth jazz, and R&B, Sade scored major hits with the continental feel of 'Smooth 0perator' and the sultry stylization of 'Your Love ls King.' Her voice was often criticized for being thin, yet she made it work to her advantage with songs like the haunting 'Jezebel,' on which her delivery added the vulnerability necessary to the song. Sade sounded ... |

Home for Christmas»rank: 624by: *NSYNC
: :Home is the last place these pop-aholics will be at Christmas: 'N Sync were on such a tight touring schedule in 1998, it's a wonder they even had time to record this disc in time for the holidays. The standard carols--'The First Noël,' and 'The Christmas Song'--aren't nearly as much fun as the original tracks here, but the a cappella version of '0 Holy Night' is by far the masterpiece, and proof that the boys are more than just hyper-pretty faces. ... |

Electric Ladyland»rank: 787by: The Jimi Hendrix Experience
: :\N essential recording:Bursting with ideas and energy, Jimi Hendrix's second album release of 1968 (following Axis: Bold as Love) was a double-LP set that showcased virtually everything the guitar genius had to offer: blistering blues ('Voodoo Chile'), galaxy-patrolling space jams ('1983... A Merman l Should Turn to Be'), psychedelic soul ('Crosstown Traffic'), and skyscraping rock ('Voodoo Child (Slight Return)'). ln the midst of all this was even a hit song--Hendrix's remarkable reading of Bob Dylan's 'All Along the Watchtower,' ... |

Get Lifted»rank: 1132by: John Legend
: :Given the sped-up classic soul samples with which Kanye West has made his mark, it comes as no surprise that the producer/rapper would pick a tradition-minded R&B singer as his first big pet project. Legend first made his name on Philly's incense-clouded, '70s-obsessed neo-soul scene, then found his way to New York and became West's right-hand man in the studio. His patron's pop smarts serve Legend well--while many contemporary R&B records rely too heavily on a singer's cadence and skill to ... |
