Arriving as it did in 1990, before nostalgia for '70s dance music turned from irony to genuine appreciation, Lisa Stansfield's Affection was ahead of its time. Featuring up-to-date clubland rhythms percolating under sweeping string arrangements a la Barry White and classic Philly soul, Stansfield's music struck the perfect balance between looking forward and looking back. "All Around the World" was justifiably the album's smash hit, but more than a few of the other tracks--"This Is the Right Time," "Live Together," and "Poison" among them--are its equal. And it's easy to get lost in Stansfield's supple, soulful voice, which leads the way in making Affection a far more memorable affair than the usual dance trifle. --Daniel Durchholz

5 out of 5 stars Timeless Soul.......2007-06-15

A well-crafted homage to the Philadelphia soul tradition, Lisa Stansfield's "Affection" was a refreshing change of pace in 1990. "All Around the World" and "This Is the Right Time" were international hits, yet the stellar track remains "The Love in Me" (featuring an impressive horn section). Stansfield also delivers the vocal goods with "Mighty Love," "You Can't Deny It" and "When Are You Coming Back?" This smashing debut represents her best album to date.

5 out of 5 stars Been around the world... and still going strong in 2007 !.......2007-05-02

Just got a replacement cd of my favorite lisa stansfield album..."Affection" is one of those rare gems..that comes around every once in a while. when this came out in 1990 i was in my junior year in high school..and this album brings back fun memories.. if this was released in 2007 it would still be a smash hit !

Lisa stansfield is a class act. her soulful, seductive voice will warm your heart. her ballads are incredible..and her dance tracks are pure gold..she ranks right up there with paula abdul and madonna.

this album, is well produced from start to finish...no filler tracks here..every song here is special ..for me my favorites are " around the world","this is the right time" "What did i do to you" and the sultry "affection"

its no wonder she was seriously being considered by tim burton to play Catwoman when they were casting for Batman returns in 1990 she has that hypnotic beauty i think she would have nailed it...

in this day of cookie cutter/mass produced wannabe stars like brittany spears etc.. they cant compare to the vocals of the lovely ms stansfield.. this cd sounds fresh as the day it hit the racks..do yourself a favor check out this cd or any of her other albums you'll be glad you did...and use the brittany and lindsay cds as coasters...

5 out of 5 stars LISA STANSFIELD.......2006-11-03

BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS ITEM, AND FOUND IT ON AMAZON! GREAT BUY, GOOD, AND I AM ENJOYING THE CD.

4 out of 5 stars Still Impressive To This Day!.......2006-09-09

This is the album that proved to the world (as well as Black folks everywhere) that Teena Marie isn't the only white girl with soul. Proclaiming Barry White as her primary influence, Lisa Stansfield was an overnight sensation with the release of Affection. Although not solid all the way through, it's still worthy of being picked up the next time you see it in the used bin if you never bought the album. Affection had a soulful dance groove that can heard in a lot of other music by the likes of the Brand New Heavies and Soul II Soul. Classic cuts like the infectious singles "All Around The World," "You Can't Deny It," and "This Is The Right Time" will definitely have you reverting back to the easy-going times of the early 90s. And even though "All Woman" was a huge single on her follow-up album, Affection still stands the test of time as being the standout album of Lisa Stansfield's career.

5 out of 5 stars The Best Of 80's.......2006-03-15

This was one of Lisa's best cd's, makes you miss the 80's.

5 out of 5 stars Don't think twice... buy this one!.......2005-12-01

Beautifully written and sung by Joan, this CD is a must for JA fans. If you only buy one of her CD's, get this as it has all of her early classics. I am such a fan that I have recently gone and bought six more of her cd's... many songs I already have from this "Love and Affection" cd but her songs that did not make the classic cut are just as great to me.

5 out of 5 stars ..with a lover, i can really laugh, really laugh..i can really move..........2005-08-16

I don't know what it is about her songs that have such an affect (or, is it effect?...geez) on me. It's music that makes me feel, think, love. It's what it means to be a woman, to be a lover, to be whoever you are in this world. It's what music should be.

I own all the CDs. All of them. This is my favorite compilation. It's the music I listen to when I paint. It's one of those CDs that you lend to a potential bf; and if he says it's "okay," he loses his potential.

If you already love Joan, you have to have this. If you've never really heard her music and stumbled onto this page, you'll find something unique and from the soul in this music. Give it a try.

4 out of 5 stars Great But One Glaring Omission.......2004-06-28

There's nothing much I can say about Joan that other reviewers have already said....but, I was very upset they didn't include one of her best songs, "Temptation." How could they possibly leave this song off of this collection? Now I have to buy the single CD collection just to get that song! Gggrrrrr.

4 out of 5 stars No "What Do Boys Dream?".......2004-04-26

A great pair of CDs with one glaring problem: Track 20 on CD #2 is supposed to be "What Do Boys Dream?" but is instead "Tell Tale", which is a decent song, but not as good as the one it replaced. What went wrong?

4 out of 5 stars Many lows but lots of compensatory highs.......2003-06-19

I don't know how I got into JA's music. I think I read a review of a concert she gave in Dallas back in 1995, and in the body of the review the writer listed some of Joan's song titles, and the titles, themselves, intrigued me. I went out and bought her then new CD, The Shouting Stage, and thought it was really horrible. Fast forward to last year when I somewhat capriciously decided to pick up her one disc greatest hits CD. I instantly fell in love with how unique some of the songs such as Cool Blue Stole My Heart, Heaven, and Love and Affection were. This 2 CD set has a lot of songs devoid of any hooks or brilliant lyrics (Simon, How Cruel, Temptation) but it has a lot of great songs that are exclusive to this CD. The track "I Must Be Going" is the most brilliant track I have ever heard and only available on CD format here....

5 out of 5 stars George Fenton is the master of subtle emotion!.......2000-07-06

the object of my affection is a movie that needed a composer to be sesititve to what was happening on screne. George was that man. he brought his gentle but genesis touch to a film full of emotions. The main title brings out the love and simpicity of the story. "out to work" brought out the quick wite and connection between a gay man and a straight woman. Overall, it is a wonderful score they got the right man to do the job. George Fenton is the best. He was the only man who could have given life to the unspoken emotions happening on screne. If you are wondering were he came from some of his other scores include Shadowlands, Ever After, and Anna and the king(with Jodie Foster). George you are a magnificent composer!

    5 out of 5 stars the best good riddance album yet.......2004-07-28

    This is a very very good CD. I own 3 other GR cd's besides this one, and this is definitely the best. Russ' voice has improved tremendously over time, especially compared with albums like "For God and Country." It seems like he has finally found his voice, and added the perfect amount of melody with hardcore. GR also has Bad Religion-esque lyrics, thought provoking with frequent 5-syllabled words. There are important messages in most songs, and then just some hardcore fun like track 2. What blows me away is that it seems less people now listen to Good Riddance, just as they are starting to get great. Anyway, do yourself a favor and buy this album.

    5 out of 5 stars nor cal's pride is still going strong.......2004-04-06

    this band constantly proves that not all the great songs have already been written. russ is a smart dude, a really thoughtful lyricist, and put that together with some of the greatest musicians today, you get a consistent, hard edge political masterpiece. if you are a pissed off democrat and like good quality rockin music, this purchase will make your life better. and then you will be praying for their next album!!!

    5 out of 5 stars Like wine, they get better with age..........2003-08-03

    With their sixth full-length, Bound by Ties of Blood and Affection, Santa Cruz's Good Riddance continue to develop and hone the sound they nearly perfected on its predecessor, Symptoms of a Leveling Spirit. This LP basically picks up where that one left off, and Russ's sharp lyrics continue to cut like a serrated edge. Adding Luke's anthemic guitar work, Chuck's meanly steady basslines, and Dave's unpredictable drumming to the mix makes for an incredibly compelling release.

    These lyrics say more in a few paragraphs than some bands cough out in their entire discographies. By and large, the album sounds slightly more confident than Symptoms, but with an obviously greater cynical aftertaste than much of their back catalog. Topics include long distance love, media influence, and the disappointment that comes with age and from experience, among other relevent social issues. The album's conclusion sums up the retrospective feeling that life may have cheated us all: "So what's it all for? / When the lies mean so much more / Much more than reality / And what's the use of keeping score / When I've lost?" In addition, the literary quality of the lyrics is incredible. What other punk bands are going to name-drop James Joyce and adapt lines from Bukowski poems? Not too many.

    So...

    If you're looking for thoughtful and honest lyrical content which actually strays from the banal ideologies of most of the lyrics in this genre, then Good Riddance will help you out. And the music ain't too bad either.

    5 out of 5 stars Evolving one release at a time.......2003-07-03

    Some say they have never changed. But Good Riddance has definately evolved in my mind. Into the epitome of hardcore pop-punk that is. With direction from the godfathers of punk there is no way this could have been a bad release. Only one song get's to me, the Blink 182-ish one not worth mentioning... Well let's just say that this isn't as Hardcore as Operation Phoenix, Not as poppy as thier first three releases... A coagulation of the past and present, hope for the future, intelligent political assertations, and the sappy love songs that never get old. 33 minutes of pure punk powerhouse. This is undeniably good music, even your mom and pops will love it. Highlights: Remember Me, Bobby Baun, Saccharine...

    4 out of 5 stars Good work by G.R........2003-06-10

    This release grows on you, the more times you listen to it.
    It's not as hard as Symptoms of a Leveling Spirit, but it's brilliant work. Once again, any true fan should buy this CD.
    I would say it's one of their better albums.

    5 out of 5 stars A voice teacher and early music fan.......2006-02-07

    Oh Hearken all ye true lovers of GOOD MUSIC for this album presents some of the most profoundly beautiful songs you will ever hear anywhere!!!It would be worthwhile even if you only enjoyed the first 3 songs on the disc: the 3 Realizations from Harmonia Sacra which are 'Lord! I have sinned','Hymn to God the Father' by Pelham Humfreys and 'A Hymn on Divine Music' (which is absolutely so meaningful to us who love the art of music) by William Croft all arranged by Britten for tenor and harp. And all sung by one of the most exquisitely beautiful tenor voices ever to come out of the UK; flawless diction,resonant and vibrant tone quality and highly emotional portraying every little nuance in the song.
    I bought this album because the music of Britten has always intrigued me and I was not disappointed in the variety of songs included on this album. The nine Holy Sonnets of John Donne are profound religious meditations,all of which are concerned with death and repentance. The songs 'Evening','Morning', and 'Night', are taken from the incidental music for Ronald Duncan's Masque 'This Way to the Tomb'.There are songs with settings of W.H. Auden, and several other writers too numerous to mention, but suffice it to say that there is sufficient variety to keep all listeners interested throughout the disc. Some of the songs I found particularly interesting are:'The Red Cockatoo',Waley-'A Poison Tree',Blake-'Cradle Song for Eleanor',MacNeice-and 'Death be not Proud'. When you have an Ian Bostridge available there is no need to look for anyone else. He has all the vocal skills and nuances to sing each song as an island in itself; simply marvelous interpretations, and he is fortunate to have Graham Johnson to accompany him.

    3 out of 5 stars Good, but could be much better..........2004-11-02

    While I do like some of what Bostridge does, his recorded performances to me seem to be filled more and more with musical gimmicks. His tone I find refreshing from so many English tenors who sound like they are in pain while singing, but Brostridge truly does lack a good legato line and he often uses a horrible strident quality for emphisis of text.

    Peter Pears' recordings of many of these songs are still in many ways the difinitive performances, but I do like to hear other voices sing this repertoire and unfortunately very few options are out there. So, kudos to Bostridge for recording these songs, but lets not crown him THE new Britten singer of our time.

    5 out of 5 stars THE English Singer sings music by THE English Songwriter.......2000-02-29

    This CD lets us know that not only was Britten the greatest of English composers since Purcell, but he is an absolute master at songwriting. His economic style is perfect for songs, his choice of text is truly sophisticated and his idiomatic writing for both piano and voice put the listener always on the edge of his or her seat. Bostridge's light but powerful voice suits these songs perfectly. And Graham Johnson's piano playing is unsurpassable. One of my favorite CDs!

    I can't believe that i slept on this cd title. I've been a fan of Jody Watley since the Shalamar days. This may well be her best recording. I definitely rank it in the top three. Pretty much every song on here is slammin' from beginning to end. The saxophone and the bass guitars on some of these tracks are off the chain. The remix to "Looking for a new love" is the bomb as well. Much love to this sista'.

    This cd is very good! I'm glad she is still doing her thing! I love the title track that is why I bought the album. But this cd is very good! I like "Pride & Joy" and "Stay."

    3 out of 5 stars The last track makes it worth.......2002-04-10

    This not La Watley's best album. It sounds good, her voice is as velvety as ever, but the whole thing ends up as kind of lame.
    The jazzy live version of Looking for a new love (Jody's 80s mega hit) makes the CD worth buying though. It's smooth, sexy and fun.

    5 out of 5 stars If you want something done right............2001-11-03

    Her own style, her own music, and her own record label.. thats the only way to get things done!! This is Jody Watley the way she was meant to be. "Affection" is one of her strongest discs in years.. you can play this from start to finish. Get it while you can!

    Coming from Rockford, IL, this band created freshly complex and melodic compositions for their stunning debut for such a young band (the average age at the time was 19). These 13 songs that document a band bursting with ideas and emotion. There is a pop feel to it but this cd is Indie Rock at it's best. Get this cd if you like good sounding post-punk with melodies, but without the whiny emo voice.
