5.0 out of 5 stars "I hope you enjoy this as much as I do...", July 3, 2001

This review is from: Let's Get to It (Audio CD)

The fourth and last complete album produced by Minogue and her cohorts, Stock and Waterman, is quite possibly her best work to date. The songs have a more sultry and often melancholy sound, which set up the template for her DeConstruction recordings. The album opens with "Word Is Out", complete with a funky hip-hop styled rhythm track and (this time around) real live horns. One particularly good track, "Too Much of a Good Thing", borrows heavily from Lisa Lisa's "Let The Beat Hit 'Em", but is, nonetheless one of the strongest tracks on the album. "Finer Feelings", in its original version here, places our perky Miss Kylie in her first bonafide adult role- "What is love without the finer feelings? It's just sex without the sexual healing..." Glad to see that she has joined the rest of her generation and discovered the joy and pain of the old bump and grind. Her duet with Keith Washington, "If You Were With Me Now", remains one of her brightest moments. It is a lush ballad full of the romantic flourishes and sweeping strings one would expect in a duet. The album closes with a pure throw-away track entitled "I Guess I Like It Like That". There's not much that can be considered original on this track as the title line is directly sampled from a late 80s club track of the same name. The rest of the music was "borrowed" from 2Unlimited's "Get Ready For This", which was signed for release by PWL International, but held for release until a couple months after Minogue's album debuted. Subsequent releases of this song prompted PWL to credit the songwriters as Stock/Waterman/Minogue/DeCoster/Wilde.

Pick this one up... it's a keeper.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Let's Get to It (Audio CD)

Word Is Out is great. (Single: #16)

Give Me Just A Little More Time is great. (Single: #2)

Too Much Of A Good Thing is brilliant.

Finer Feelings is great. Original album version. (Single: #11)

If You Were With Me Now is great. (Single: #4)

Let's Get To It is brilliant.

Right Here Right Now is brilliant.

Live And Learn is brilliant.

No World Without You is brilliant.

She sings "without you" like another viewer suggested, instead of "witou-choo" like others would sing.

I Guess I Like It Like That is a brilliant dance track. (Un-noticed single: #49)

This dance track goes on for 6 minutes and also features Tony King and the Visionmasters.

Tony King has remixed such hits as Let's Get To It and Step Back In Time.

Out of interest Step Back In Time was a single and charted at #4.

Let's Get To It charted at #15 in the UK and spent 12 weeks on the Top 100 UK Albums Chart.

It's as simple as that. (Or not so simple!)

4.0 out of 5 stars The least aknowledged Kylie album., March 22, 2002

This review is from: Let's Get to It (Audio CD)

I bought this album in Australia many years back when it was released and I always felt it was an album that deserved the same attention 'Fever' is now receiving. My Sister eventually pinched the album off of me while I was travelling and I have missed it ever since. She likes it too much to give it back.
It still has all the disco hooks that she is well received for, but it is a much more understated sound - perfect for that long trip in the car. The strongest tracks I thought were "Right Here, Right Now" and "Live and Learn". Neither tracks were ever released as singles as far as I know, which is something I have noticed with many of her releases. I think that many of her great tracks are never released as singles, perhaps defining the save the best until the end ethos.
Over all it is a sexy, catchy album and like so much of her music, has not faded with the years. This is definitely one of Kylies hidden gems, and I remember it left me feeling like I wanted more by the time the last track ends.
So playing it once is just not enough, it will seduce you unexpectedly, and i can't wait for my new copy to arrive to listen to again. This album never got the credit it deserved.
