Let's get one thing out of the way right away....Luther has waaay too many collections out there, most of them not worth the money that it costs to make them since they are often short and never get all of his hits. This one, however, is pretty nice and has a purpose.

Here is the tracklist of the collection:

1. The Glow Of Love
2 I Can't Wait No Longer (Let's Do This) featuring Deidre "Spin" Roper of Salt-n-Pepa
3. Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now
4. Give Me The Reason
5. Lady, Lady
6. Never Too Much
7. I Can Tell You That
8. Heaven Knows
9. The Rush
10. Stop To Love

Even though it doesn't say it anywhere (there are no liner notes, only writing credits on the back booklet that is blank inside), this collection seems to have a purpose and that is to showcase Luther's upbeat dance pop/R&B side. Luther is widely acknowledged for the ballads but has had notable pop chart success with the romantic and danceable "Never Too Much" and snyth happy, female background vocal driven "Stop To Love". And also included is "The Glow Of Love", which isn't a proper Luther track but something he did under the group name Change. While Luther's dance tracks aren't as funky as Prince's or as epic as Michael Jackson's, they are often very nice and not overbearing (in other words, not hardcore, only for the club stuff) and this collection is a nice way to get a taste of a different side of Luther that, while popular on the charts, isn't what he is known for by many.
