almost completely overlooked by the u.s. music industry, sybil is world-class singer whose skills range for soaring dance vocals to sultry r&b to funkdafied takes on burt bacharach. it should be noted, however, that this album is a greatest hits collection (as opposed to a "best of" collection) resulting in the exclusion of a number of her less well-received gems. while "you're the love of my life" and "when i'm good and ready" stand out as some of her best (new) work, fans who may only be aware of her early hits will be pleased by the inclusion of "don't make me over" and "walk on by". "crazy for you" is also a standout, featuring rhymes by the funky divas of hip-hop, salt-n-pepa.

She came to fame with Don't make me over and the Stock/Aitken/Waterman hit When I'm good & Ready. Sybil has a good voice and usually also well written songs. Her albums are always quite enjoyable. Here you have a best of with remixes. If you want to get to know her, have a start with this :)

SYBIL HAS THIS UNIQUENESS ABOUT HER. WHEN SHE SANG SHE HAD THE JOY AND SINCERITY IN HER HEART AND YOU CAN TELL FROM THE WAY SHE SING HER SONGS. FALLING IN LOVE , DON'T MAKE ME OVER, WALK ON BY WERE HITS FOR SURE. SHE WAS REALLY UNDERRATED AND HAD BAD PROMOTION. IF SHE HAD BEEN PROMOTED THE RIGHT WAY SHE WILL STILL BE AROUND IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS TODAY. I WOULD PUT HER IN THE CATAGORY OF SMOOTH R&B QUEEN.

Sybill Greatest Hits is excellent! I enjoyed listen to her CD. I would definitely recommend her CD to anyone who loves listen to R&B.

Love Sybil sould sultry voice. The hit "Don't Make Me Over" was a classy hit then and still rings true today.

Sybil has a Good Voice.and she did alot of catchy Material.A Couple Of Burt Bacharach cuts.DOn't Make me over with the Soul 11 SOul vibe that was first started on Dennis Edwards Don't Look Any FUrther.but Sybil Inspired the same Sound On Shanice Wilson's I Like Your Smile a few years later.the music was better&freshier at the time but somethings have dated still you can't deny her VOice.
