Not A Bad Album - Reviewed on 2008-08-20
* * * * *
1 customer found this review helpful.

Long before Michael McDonald did his classic Motown and soul covers, Michael Bolton did two collections of classic songs. This was co-produced by super producer David Foster and includes covers of songs by The Four Tops (Reach Out I'll Be There, with some of the band's members in the background), The Bee Gees (To Love Somebody), Sam Cooke (You Send Me, Bring It On Home To Me), The Beatles (Yesterday) and much more.
Plus he gets support from California sessison players like Dean Parks, Michael Thompson, John "JR" Robinson, Neil Stubenhaus, Michael Landau and Nathan East.

If you've never heard any of Bolton's work, I don't recommend this being the first thing you listen to by him. But if you enjoy his music, this album is great for the collection. "To Love Somebody" was the highlight of the album, and his rendition of "Drift Away" was magnificent. And all in between was great. Great for Boltheads, but I recommend getting introduced to his other work before nabbing this one.
VERY GOOD ALBUM - Reviewed on 2004-10-25

Some time ago, I bought this album, having heard "To love somebody" on the radio. Just that song makes the whole album worthy. This album is not a masterpiece, of course, neither so bad as said. The best songs are: "Since I fell for you", "To love somebody", "Hold on, I'm coming" and "Drift away". Perhaps the only weak work on the album is "Yesterday". Overall, an album that deserves to be rediscovered, and I think it was too much underrated.
Finally, I must say that I liked much more this album than the volume II, which was rated higher...
SHAMEFUL AND BLASPHEMOUS! - Reviewed on 2004-10-19

Michael Bolton does for classic soul what The Boston Strangler did for door to door salesmen.

Just because he somehow manages to sell X-million units of his ridiculous bellowing and caterwauling, his ego inflates even more to the point he thinks it gives him a license to massacre and devastate some of the most revered soul/R&B classics of all time.

If only there were laws against such aberrant behaviors. Whoever signed this idiot should be banished from this planet, along with Mr. Bolton altogether.

"Drift away" is powerful in this new rendition. It's hard to get a voice Like Michael... Just for this song alone, I will buy this album... I am actually re-buying this album since I can't find my old one... and I will never ever find other performances that can top 'Hold On, I'm Coming" and "Konck On Wood." Pop songs don't get better than this.... guilty pleasures indeed!!! The best album from Michael Bolton....
