5.0 out of 5 stars JOHNNY GILL IS THE MAN!!!, October 11, 2001
By 
This review is from: Favorites (Audio CD)
Johnny Gill was the man when this came out! God I miss his voice, he has got to keep making cd's!

I was never a complete fan of New Edition in the late 80's early 90's. However I consider NE Heartbreak to be their best CD. Part of that reason was Johnny Gill. Where Ralph Tresvant has the smooth silky falsetto, Johnny had the rough, sugar, sweet voice that would melt your drawers right off.

When this brother went solo, it was on...."Rub You The Right Way" rubbed me the right way in every way, "Wrap Your Body Tight" had that pop, funkiness to it and "My, My, My" -- well, if you know you what I mean, there is no explaining it.

The funny thing is I had the original CD's with all of these cuts, but I bought this one specifically for the car....(I have more car CD's than anything else). Go buy this and remember the good times! Enjoy!

Johnny is a great balladeer. I had to have this in my collection. It's all of my favorites on one CD. My all-time favorite is "Quiet Time to Play" and it is hard to pick out a favorite.

5.0 out of 5 stars My man! Where are you now?, March 15, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Favorites (Audio CD)
Hot, old-fashioned R&B, the stuff hot nights are made of. And I'm talking about the getting ready, the walk to the car, etc. Not let's just straight in the bed... Long before "Feeling on your booty" by R. Kelly; there was "My, My, My --you sure look good tonight..." by Johnny Gill. This is R&B of the gentleman persuation. No gettin' naked here, just romancing his lady, and makin' me SWOON. It's all his greatest hits, with oddly, a Christmas song thrown in??? (ok whatever). This is fabulous. This man is underated and I wish he'd make a comback.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of our Era, November 12, 2002
This review is from: Favorites (Audio CD)
Johnny Gill is the ultimate ballader of our time! His sensual style can make any occassion special. He has a voice that can with stand the test of time. There are not a lot of REAL singers left in R&B music,but rest assure that Johnny headlines what is left of the true culture of Rythym & Blues!

This review is from: Favorites (Audio CD)
even though i believe he still has great things to do Musically Johnny Gill is a Very Talented Artist.His Voice has always been strong but the Material he has gotten at different times hasn't always been on point.the songs here Represent His Great Talent from Slow-Jams to Up-Tempo Material.this is a Great Mixture of His Work.

I bought this cd back in 2000, originally it was released in 1997. Let me tell you this I used to play it before bed and the music would just melt right out of my speakers. My favorite...."Having Illusions". I had never bought a Johnny Gill cd before and this was just the best collection I had EVER heard. From the music to the artwork this is just pure excellence !!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Compilation..., March 31, 2001
By 
Ava "terri553" (Fort Lauderdale, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Favorites (Audio CD)
This is a wonderful compilation of Johnny Gill's best work. I think this was a a great move by his record label to release this cd of Johnny Gill's greatest hits. Johnny Gill has one of the most beautiful voices in R&B music today. Listening to his music takes you into a different world and leaves you feeling so good. My all-time favorite songs from Johnny is My, My, My, Quiet Time To Play, Where Do We Go From Here featuring Stacy Lattisaw and Give Love on Christmas Day which are all on this disc. This cd is a classic and will be around for a while.

Do you want to hear good, R&B music?

If you don't buy this cd, then you never will

5.0 out of 5 stars Imagine Anita Baker trapped inside a man's body., June 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Favorites (Audio CD)
Johnny Gill draws strong comparisons to Anita Baker, and for good reason, too. Like Baker, he sings songs about love in a very sentimental way. "My, My, My" is the answer to Baker's "Body and Soul." "Lady Dujour" is like "Angel," "Wrap My Body Tight" compares to "Sweet Love," "There U Go" spells "Been Too Long," and "Quiet Time to Play" gives way to "Soul Inspiration." In conclusion, Johnny Gill and Anita Baker are so much alike in more ways than one. And they're both great crooners, too! "Favorites" is the album to get! From Johnny, that is.
