Shalamar - Greatest Hits [Right Stuff]

Amazon.com
One of the most consistently enjoyable and successful of '80s dance-pop acts, Shalamar still sounds fabulous on this hour-plus set of classic singles. From the late-disco era "Take That to the Bank" and "Second Time Around" to the New Wave-like "Dead Giveaway," Greatest Hits is a stellar listen and a reminder of the days when Solar Records was in the forefront of modern R&B. Only the empty-calories Motown medley "Uptown Festival" and the movie theme "Don't Get Stopped in Beverly Hills" slow the flow. --Rickey Wright

Oldie but Goldie.......2007-03-12

This CD brings back memories of the good old days when music was music and you could understand the lyrics. I enjoy Shalamar. It's a classic.

one of the greatest soul-funk groups around.......2007-03-10

This group has some of the best vocalizations and instrumentation of any historic band other than dazz band. Altho I haven't ventured into their other cds, it would be a reasonable bet that other cds offered by the same group have stellar good performances also. The odd thing is, neither Shalamar nor Dazz Band were given much airtime on radio or on the dancefloor either, so public recognition of their abilities is extremely late in coming.

FEEL CHEATED WITH SHORT VERSIONS.......2005-05-10

Thanks to another reviewer [B.C.] for the heads-up regarding the fact that the songs collected here are the short single versions, rather than the album or extended 12" cuts. A major part of the greatness of the SOLAR label's output is the awesomeness, fun, and inventiveness of the fuller or extended club versions of their productions. This is especially true for Shalamar. To be fair, the number of selections here is generous; still, I would have prefered the 10 best-of-the-best in all their full-length glory. Truth be told, also, this is a greatest hits collection and just fine for those who are content with more selections in their shorter versions, and there is a SHALAMAR, THE 12" COLLECTION for those like me who prefer the full and extended versions. That set features 13 tracks.

GOOD SET !!!!.......2004-09-06

I LIKE THIS CD. IT CONTAINS ALL OF MY FAVORITE SONGS BY SHALAMAR. SO, IF YOU LIKE SHALAMAR THEN I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND YOU TO BUY THIS CD BECAUSE YOU WOULD ENJOY IT. I ENJOY IT . IF YOU LIKE OLD SKOOL R&B YOU WOULD ENJOY THIS ALBUM . IF YOU LIKE HOWARD HEWETT AND JODY WATLEY THEN YOU WOULD DEFINITELY LIKE THIS ALBUM.

This is a superb album! Had it for a few years.......2004-08-29

I recently got their just released double CD anthology. But this single CD really covered that 10-year period of hits that Shalamar had. They really created that classic slow Jam For the Lover in You that's still played to this day. I still like Second time Around, Take that to The Bank, Dancing in the Sheets, Games and others. But one of my favorites is I Can Make You Feel Good and its many bridges and peaks swinging all across the song. I can't believe that it peaked at no. 33--should have gone top 5 to me. Maybe they're not into those kinds of songs for radio. But this album was a benchmark to the successful future solo careers of Jody Watley (whom I still love) and Howard Hewitt (one of the best male R&B singers of the '80s). I remember when Solar Records had hits left and right with some 3 or 4 artists--were the Bad Boy and Motown of its time. They could still be doing it now if they had to. But Shalamar was a major part of that period with their different lineups. They made quality songs and hits and this album proves that.
