Free Music Notes for The Best of the Stylistics
Free Music Review: Their Harmony Is Unbelievable: Musical Ecstasy
Hit: 5 Stars
I am maninly a rap fanatic, and I am mad young, and I ain't gone front, I know litle about this great soul group, but I will say this, this collective has some great 70's soul jams with great vocals and sweet hooks and smooth jams. Fans of Delfonics and similar groups who have not yet checked the Stylistics out should. Russel Thompkins Jr.'s mountain high falsetto is cool. "You Are Everything" is one of the best songs I have ever heard. I love how songs like this build up to a musical and vocal climax from the beginning of each verse to the wonderfully harmonic choruses. I love the simple lyrics of the song, and how deep the emotions are behind them. It is such a beautiful song. This jam along with "You Make Me Feel Brand New (my close 2nd fav here) really captivate the soul. I would like to experience the emotions the singers and writers had while creating these classics. "People Make The World Go Round" is a cool jam dealing with social issues in society. "Break Up To Make Up" is a little sadder and slower and as emotionally rich as any other here. It analyzes a rocky relationship with sweet yet somber vocals. I would have loved to grow up in a musical era with such rich songs. I love the airy chorus of "Betcha By Golly Wow" and "Stone In Love With You" and the breezy, sweet vibes they give off. "You're A Big Girl Now" is a bit upbeat and funky adressing a love interest coming of age. For some reason to me, this joint sounds cool for lowriding. If you like slower soul jams with breathtaking heavenly vocals and instruments, then this Stylistics collective has all the cool slow jams to evoke those feelings for ya boo. These songs all have a magical feel to them and define real soul music. Anyone going retro like me and exploring older soul should start with groups like The Stylistics.
The Best of the Stylistics Poster
This is an early collection that gathers the group's hits up to 1975. While they continued to make the charts (albeit sporadically) for another decade, the Stylistics' golden years had drawn to a close by the time this record hit the stands, so almost all of their key tracks are here. Best of the Stylistics Vol. 2 and All-Time Classics cover different bases, while Greatest Love Hits is a theme compilation with some overlap. Yet another compilation, Very Best of the Stylistics, largely has the same material as the Best of... package. For an exhaustive selection of the group's best work, you'll have to go to the original albums. Top picks: The Stylistics, Round 2, and Let's Put It All Together. --Gavin McNettR&B Music CDs
