5.0 out of 5 stars
A classic CD to hold onto, February 23, 2004
This review is from: I'm in Love Again (Audio CD)
As I've said before, until a Patti LaBelle box set appears that includes all her materpieces, these old CDs are still worth buying for the tracks that don't appear on the current selection of greatest hits CDs. This CD was a classic when it came out. "If Only You Knew" shows the power and depth of Patti's voice, singing a torch song as only Patti can. It is a touching song of unblossomed love, soul with out being sappy. "I'm in Love Again", the title track, is upbeat and again is a showcase for Patti's vocal ability. It doesn't appear on greatest hits collections, that is why I've kept this CD to this day. The other gem is "Love Need and Want You". For those who listen to current music, you may recognize it sampled on "Dilemma" by Nelly and Kelly Rowland.

The BEST Patti solo CD?!, January 20, 2006
This review is from: I'm in Love Again (Audio CD)
If Only You Knew, I'm in Love Again, Loverman, Love Bankrupt, When Am I Gonna Find True Love, Love Need and Want You - ENUFF SAID! This could be Patti's most consistent, best album ever - and that's saying a lot - a pitch-perfect, soul-stirring snapshot of 80s quiet storm soul. Worth the price of admission for the legendary "vocal break" toward the end of IF ONLY YOU KNEW - no one, I mean NO ONE, works a lyric like MISS PATTI! She deserves a box set, but until then, you need this album (and all her others) just for the oft-overlooked sublime album tracks. This is no exception.

Love Need and Want You , Patti, September 22, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: I'm in Love Again (Audio CD)
This is a great album from the wonderful R&B personality Patti LaBelle. The first half is a treat of slow jams that goes from jazzy "Lover Man" to dowright heartwrenching R&B "Love Need and Want You". "Love Need and Want You" is a masterpiece that is one of those songs that takes you away with it's floating melody, and it is followed by her smash "If Only You Knew". Anyone who reads this obviously has love for Ms. LaBelle, so take it from me, this is a good place to start if you have none of her music or a great addition to any collection. It's smooth and satisfying.
