The best of Luther.......2007-01-09

This was the second time that I bought this CD. My husband "borrowed" the first one for an extended time. One Night with You has slow songs and a few upbeat ones as well. I thoroughly enjoy this CD.

MUSIC IS FOREVER !.......2006-08-03

IT HAS BEEN JUST OVER A YEAR NOW SINCE THE DEATH OF THE GREAT
LUTHER VANDROSS.BUT THIS CD REMINDS ME EVERY TIME I PLAY IT HOW HE WAS ONE OF THE BEST SINGER'S OF R&B WHO EVER LIVED.
THIS CD MAKES ME REALIZE THAT AS LONG AS THE MUSIC PLAY'S THE MEMORIES WILL NEVER FADE.THE SONG'S ON THIS CD I HAVE HAD SOME GREAT MEMORIES TO;ALONG WITH MILLION'S OF HIS OTHER FAN'S.
LUTHER VANDROSS MAY NOW BE GONE BUT HIS MUSIC WILL BE FOREVER.
MAY HE REST IN PEACE (ROME,NEW YORK).

Still For The Love.......2006-06-30

These days, the music industry seems to be more about gloss, rather than the elegance of someone and the most important thing of them all, the voice. Yet, it is also sad that within that voice, this past year we've lost some great soulful singers like Lou Rawls, Barry White, Marvin Gaye, and recently Luther Vandross. It is very sad though because this July marks one year ago, that the world lost one of the most gifted singers ever in not just R&B, but the world of music in total. Yet, his era with Sony cmae to an end in the 90's and he brought out some great songs to match. This collection sums the second half of it.

One Night With You: The Best Of Love Volume 2 is a well-rendered reflection of Luther Vandross, and the era that he had made in the 90's with his career. The album was re-released as part of SonyBMG's The Hits series, and the songs sound great. The album includes classics like Power Of Love / Love Power, Don't Want To Be A Fool, his remake of Lionel Richie & Diana Ross' Endless Love with Mariah Carey, and Always And Forever. Whiele the collection does deliver nicely, there still were a couple of tracks that weren't highlighted like Going In Circles, and other great tracks.

Despite a few flaws, One Night With You: The Best Of Love Volume 2 is a good reflection of Luther's era in the 90's for die hard fans, but it still could've benn better for new fans of the belated, elequent singer. For those, I would recommend the 2003 Essential Luther Vandross collection instead, from the soulful man with the power of love.

The latter years.......2004-08-03

I would actually give this album four-and-a-half stars. The second volume of THE BEST OF LOVE covers most of Luther's nineties hits for Epic, and was his last official release on the label. The impressive stream of hits includes the smash hits "Power of Love/Love Power" (#4 Pop, #1 R&B, #3 Adult Contemporary), "Don't Want To Be a Fool" (#9 Pop, #4 R&B, #14 Adult Contemporary), "The Best Things In Life Are Free" (#10 Pop, #1 R&B, #3 Dance), and "Endless Love" (#2 Pop, #7 R&B, #11 Adult Contemporary). Also included are the R&B hits "Little Miracles" (#62 Pop, #10 R&B) and "Your Secret Love" (#52 Pop, #5 R&B), as well a few lower-charting singles - "Love the One You're With" (#95 Pop, #28 R&B), "Always and Forever" (#58 Pop, #16 R&B, #25 Adult Contemporary), and "I Can Make It Better" (#80 Pop, #15 R&B) - all three of which should have been much more successful.

The disc is rounded out by four newly-recorded songs, an okay remix of "Love Don't Love You," and Luther's exceptional, but out-of-place, rendition of "My Favorite Things." All of the four new songs are fine and nice to have, but only the cut by Jam & Lewis ("I Won't Let You Do That To Me") really stands out. While all of Luther's pop hits from this time period are here, I do wish that more of his R&B and adult contemporary hits, like "The Rush" (#73 Pop, #6 R&B) and "Sometimes It's Only Love" (#9 R&B, #9 Adult Contemporary), were included. However, THE BEST OF LOVE VOLUME 2 covers most of the bases, and is an excellent bookend to the first BEST OF LOVE. Bizarrely, even with the new material included, this compilation only reached #44 on the Hot 200 (Luther's lowest-charting album) and his first not to reach Platinum status in sales.
