MY DEAR FREINDS ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND WORLD, I IMPLORE YOU TO LISTEN TO (ROY HAMILTON) SO MUCH VOICE AND SUBTLE SOUL THAT I DID NOT KNOW A THING ABOUT.

IT IS A MARVEL WE HAVE THESE GREAT ARTISTS ON CD THAT SOME OF US WOULD HAVE NEVER FALLEN FOR.

I DARE ANYONE TO DISLIKE (ROY HAMILTON), ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO NOT DISCERN HIS VERVE AND VELVET HUSKY (PERHAPS LUSTY) VOCALS----WOW:)

5.0 out of 5 stars An orthodox balladeer meets R&B, February 3, 2007

This review is from: Don't Let Go (Audio CD)

During the stay at the corporate Epic, Roy Hamilton left many orchestrated ballads and also some R&B sides. As for R&B fans like me, this compilation should be welcome because it is compiled in a R&B fan's point of view. Orchestrated R&B sound spawned by the conservative Epic is well suited to Roy Hamilton's rich baritone voice with a smooth vibrato. Especially his rockabilly sides are so cool. Such adult arrangements cannot be found so often in other R&B or R&R tunes. If you love hard-edged old school R&B, his sides should not suit you. If you listen a little more patiently, you can find the bud of the gospel-influenced Soul in him.

I brought this CD for my Mother for Xmas. She is very thrilled and enjoy listening to Roy Hamilton. It brings memories back of my Father when they were younger.
