Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter
(1991)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
Cole Porter did not die of AIDS, but he is generally acknowledged to have been at least bisexual, which seems to be the justification for assembling an AIDS charity album in which contemporary artists perform songs he wrote in the 1920s, '30s, '40s, and '50s. Producer/creators Leigh Blake and John Carlin (along with Steve Lillywhite, credited as ...

After achieving considerable success as a dancer and member of popular R&B/rock group Shalamar, Jody Watley staged a spectacular debut as a solo artist with her self-titled album. This set not only scored five hit singles, but also a Grammy for Best New Artist. For a few years, Jody Watley was almost as hot as Madonna, scoring major pop, R&B, and ...

The Look
(1983)

by
Shalamar
The Look found Shalamar incorporating elements of new wave pop into their stylized dance funk, as demonstrated by such glossy pop-funk as "Dead Giveaway" and "No Limits (The Now Club)." The sound is appealing on such uptempo numbers, but the ballads are slightly weaker, lacking strong, memorable hooks. Similarly, the funk numbers tend to blend ...

With its third album, Big Fun, Shalamar unveiled its best-known and most successful lineup.

Volume 19 in Madacy's year-by-year overview of the biggest hits of the '70s and '80s is the best of the series' late-period collections -- smashes like the Church's "Under the Milky Way," Ziggy Marley & the Melody Makers' "Tomorrow People" and INXS' "New Sensation" still pack a punch that many other hits of the era fail to deliver. Chuck Donkers ...

Affairs of the Heart

by
Jody Watley
Watley's sorely overlooked junior opus is the standout of all her '80s and '90s output. Combining the best of both of the artist's musical worlds, Affairs of the Heart supplies a handful of energetic dance numbers and a plentiful selection of quiet storm ballads. The result is a set that's much thicker and deeper than 1987's Jody Watley and 1989's ...

The Howard Hewett/Jody Daniels/Jeffrey Daniels edition of Shalamar was in excellent form on Big Fun, Friends and The Look, but if one had to pinpoint the group's best release ever, the hands-down winner would have to be its fourth album, Three for Love.

When Jody Watley was at the top of her game, she was truly a force to be reckoned with. Equipped with superior dancing skills, a keen sense of fashion, great looks, sultry vocals, and some of the catchiest pop/dance tunes of her time, Watley scored an impressive string of hit singles in the late '80s and early '90s. Unfortunately, her descent was ...

The 80's: Funky Love

The title is misleading -- Funky Love is not an apt description for these ten urban soul sounds. The collection samples urban contemporary from artists of many styles, including the Manhattans, Jody Watley, and Ready for the World. What's funky about Larry Graham's "One in a Million," the Force MDs' "Tender Love," or Patrice Rushen's "Feels So ...

If any one 1980s superstar suffered an undeserved fall from grace it was Jody Watley, who, at one point in time, rivaled only Madonna in popularity. As the 1990s took shape, her popularity took a drastic downward turn, to the point where, by 1995, she had to release her fifth solo album, Affection, on her own label. The album came and went quickly ...

Jody Watley, who was one of the biggest American music stars at the end of the 1980s, saw her streak come to an abrupt end with the release of her fourth solo album, Intimacy, which, years later, still manages to sound fresh and undated. She toned down the rhythms (a little bit) which had made her so famous, and instead recorded an album ripe with ...
