Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com essential recording
When Barry White first burst onto the music scene in 1973--seemingly out of nowhere--he was dismissed by some critics as an Isaac Hayes imitator. Like Hayes (a chart maker since 1969), White had a deep baritone that made him a natural musical "lover man," and even though his physique was a real contrast to the sexy image of Marvin Gaye or an early-'70s Al Green, the multitalented producer, songwriter, and artist knew that he had the kind of vocal style to win over a primarily female audience.
With this, his very first album, White's music clearly had plenty of bedroom appeal. Using the same technique as Hayes, with extended songs that lasted several minutes, White helped put a lock on midnight love anthems. In addition to the pop and R&B smash "I'm Gonna Love You Just a Little More Baby" and his own standouts, "Back My Yesterday" and "I've Found Someone," White took the Four Tops' "Standing in the Shadows of Love" and turned it into a veritable opus. With swirling strings, arrangements courtesy of Gene Page, and his own Love Unlimited vocal trio providing back up, White's first album was just a taste of what was to come. --David Nathan

Stellar Debut.......2006-02-13
Barry makes his debut.......2004-01-19
Full of beautiful arrangements, muscianship, and his trademark orchestration, The Maestro allows the songs to build up, peak, and slowly let them run down. The other two songs are musically just as impressive, although Barry probably needed to tighten up the lyrics and vocals.
A remarkably advanced sound for a 'new artist', however Barry had been plying his trade and schooling himself on the game for years before this release. A little bit of 'remastering' is needed on this CDs sound, however the album itself is a classic and just a sample of more to come.
