5.0 out of 5 stars It Just Gets Better & Better, December 3, 2006

This review is from: Slow Jams: Timeless Collection 3 (Audio CD)

I initally picked up Slow Jams: The Timeless Collection, Vol. 3 for the classic I Wanna Be Closer by Switch. I Wanna Be Closer is a sizzling ballad courtesy of Jermaine Jackson's writing and producing talents, that's silky smooth and overflowing with romanticism. Bobby Debarge's searing falsetto countered by Philip Ingram's tenor/baritone made this a quiet storm staple. Cleveland, OH-based Smooth Approach did a grand remake on their You Got It set that rivaled the original's smoothness and pull appeal. Other wll known tracks such as Shirley Murdock's "As We Lay," skillfully mixed synth-based minimalism with her evocative vocal, the classic Doo Wop flavored Penny For Your Thoughts by The Tavers and Baby Come Close by Smokey Robinson. There's also a little known ditty called I Wanna Make Love by Lilo Thomas.

I OWN THE ENTIRE COLLECTION OF 'SLOW JAMS' THE TIMELESS COLLECTION. I ALSO OWN THE ENTIRE COLLECTION OF 'SMOOTH GROOVES'. I CAN'T BELIEVE NO ONE HAD EVER HEARD OF 'THE LONELY ONE' & 'I DESTROYED YOUR LOVE'. THOSE TWO SONGS RECEIVED PLENTY OF AIR-PLAY IN CHICAGO! 'SLOW JAMS' VOL.3 IS WELL KNOWN FOR MORE THAN JUST A FEW SONGS. THAT WHOLE CD IS SLAMMIN'! AS A MATTER OF FACT, THE WHOLE COLLECTION IS RIGHT ON TIME!
