R&B
Nice easy listening. I purchased this CD used a few years back and I like every track on this album. One of my best Gladys Knight CDs.


Gladys brings down the house with "The End of the Road"

That being said, I also liked "Our Love", a feel good track with great vocals. The gem on this album is "End of the Road Medley", Knight's live tribute to the musicians of yesterday who made music with SOUL, and she thanks Boyz II Men for "getting it right"! I agree, and it's a not to be missed tribute. "I Don't Want to Know" was a sappy ballad produced by Babyface that received lots of radio airply.

Surprisingly, some of the tracks from big name producers like Babyface, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis (Next Time), and BeBe Winans (I'll Fall in Love if You Hang Around), and George Duke (Somehow He Loves Me) were not that memorable.


For All Music Lovers

Maybe my prayers were answered, fact is this time she has teamed up with more contemporary and well-known writers and producers. Gladys striked back in 1994 with a great collection.
And it does a fat good to her.
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis write and prooduce both NEXT TIME and the desperation lament of HOME ALONE; Babyface skillfully tells, produces and backs up on the final statement of a woman who finds out about her man cheating on her with I DON'T WANNA KNOW. I'LL FALL IN LOVE IF YOU HANG AROUND sees Rhett Lawrence and Bebe Winans behind the wheel.
OUR LOVE is a nice uptempo and CHOICE OF COLORS is Gladys covering Curtis Mayfield.
But the hot spot of the whole collection is a live medley of old and new classic standards almost 12. 00 minutes long, something that gives the real stature of this woman on stage. . .
END OF THE ROAD MEDLEY is soooooo good.
Gladys is a true star!.


Good Music Never Dies
Every track on this CD is a hit. Once again Miss Knight has topped herself. Her song "Home Alone" has been the source of many good cries when I'm feeling lonely. I love her voice, it's full and well developed. The girl can sang. Buy the CD, this is one of very few CDs that I have loved each and every track. So you know its all that and a bag of chips.


JUST FOR ALL THE WORLD
"I Don't Want To Know"(writen by Babyface), "Home Alone" e "Choice of Colors"(from Curtis Mayfield) are awfull and a great introdution to the powerfull, unforgetable performance of "End Of The Road, medley, live"! If you are down, depressed. . hear this track. Hardly, you won't feel the energy, the ecstasy taking all your body, and your soul and your mind. . . Why don't we hear it on the radio? (hey, MCA, wake up!)This CD deserves 5 stars only for this medley! It's soul music! It's Gladys Knight!.
