Synopsis

Album Description

2010 collection. The 'remix' has grown from a nice club-oriented novelty in the late '70s and early '80s to an art form in the millennium. From extended workouts to radical reworkings, the 'remix' has managed to turn humble DJs and producers into superstars. While some DJs have become even more recognizable than the acts that they work with, that is not the case here. From the first note to the last, this collection of classic and 'essential' mixes will remind you of the majesty of the song and the artistry of the performer as well as the magic of the mix. Sony.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"While far too many of these discs have remixes that were never hard to find on CD, the Luther Vandross disc has some great standouts. Naturally, just like the others, it could easily have been 2 discs with more missing mixes, like the 12" of I Really Didn't Mean It, the full 12" mix of Power of Love/Love Power, or the Thunderpuss mixes of Can Heaven Wait, there are some real treasures here, including the david morales mixes of Heaven Knows and The Rush, as well as the 12" remix of Stop to Love. Personally, I could have done without the '89 remix' of Never Too Much, because if I'm going to listen to that song, it's going to be the original mix, and they could have excluded that pointless remix for one of the rare mixes mentioned above. Track list:

Never Too Much (89 Remix) (6:47)

Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now (1995 Remix) (6:52)

Heaven Knows (Classic 12" Mix) (7:57)

Power Of Love/Love Power (The Frankie Knuckles Radio Remix) (4:16)

It's Over Now (Dance Mix) (5:33)

Stop To Love (12" Mix) (5:29)

Love The One You're With (Joe 'The Butcher' Nicolo Remix) (4:53)

Your Secret Love (Urban Remix) (5:09)

I Gave It Up (When I Fell In Love) (Marcus Miller Extended Mix) (6:21)

The Rush (Morales 12" Mix) (7:16)"
