4.0 out of 5 stars A classic from CHER, August 23, 1999

Before "Believe," before "If I Could Turn Back Time," before many of her current fans were even born, Cher recorded a timeless album that remains the foundation of her career. This album contains Cher's most famous song, the title track "Gypsys, Tramps, and Thieves," as well as the huge hit "The Way of Love." Beyond that the highlights include James Taylor's "Fire and Rain," which is my favorite cut on the album, as well as "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" previously recorded by...well, everybody. This is an emotion packed album delivered with gusto. Two more amazing songs are "I Hate To Sleep Alone," and "One Honest Man." Now if you're looking for the disco-queen, she's not here. However, if you're looking for some of Cher's most amazing vocal performances...you'll find them on this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Before the incarnations....., December 1, 2002

70's pop classic. Before she went Disco, 80's rock and 90's dance she recorded classic pop. "He'll Never Know" is a power ballad with a story, i always liked this one. "I HATE To SlEEP Alone" is pop, a fun little song reminiscent of Sonny and Cher. You got the Billboard hits..."Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves" and "The Way Of Love". Also some of the best rock covers. "He Ain't Heavy...." has been covered by everyone from Al Green to Donny Hathaway but Cher puts her own spin to it with her specific low range. "Fire and Rain" is also nice. As a fan of pop spanning from 70's to the 90's, it's refreshing to have a cd that is enduring and sounds great in any decade. Not all Cher albums can be bestowed with that comment, but this does. Cop' it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sentimental Cher, June 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Gypsys Tramps & Thieves (Audio CD)

It reminds me that Cher's voice was clear in 70's, Track 1 & 2 remark that Cher is a classic pop singer. The cd is one of Cher's best produced. So glad to show this cd to younger fans, Cher, no doubt, a disco diva, but don't forget her early years style; after high & low.....Cher still standtall. 5 stars, for sentimental reason.
