Tommy Edwards - Singles Collection 1951-62 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rhythm & Blues
- Description: Tommy Edwards was a sophisticated R&B vocalist, best-known for his landmark US and UK No. 1 InchIt's All In The GameInch, but who also had many other pop and R&B hits, and released many singles which showcased the sophisticated ballad style which characterised much of his work, although he was a versatile artist, releasing a country-flavoured album before Ray Charles began interpreting the genre. He first achieved success as a songwriter, co-writing the big 1946 Louis Jordan hit InchThat Chick's Too Young To FryInch, but he eventually got his first recording contract in 1949. This great value focuses on his singles releases for MGM during the period when he achieved all his chart successes, naturally featuring all his nineteen pop and R&B hits, and selecting A and B sides from across his output during that time to provide what we hope is an entertaining and representative cross-section of his work and a worthy showcase for his extraordinary voice and his unique way with a song. Tommy died tragically young in 1969, so this collection certainly comprises his main career highlights. We have, by way of fascinating comparison, included both versions of InchIt's All In The GameInch with which he made the charts in 1951 and 1958, and done the same with his two versions of InchPlease Mr. SunInch, hits in 1952 and 1959, and InchMorning Side Of The MountainInch, a hit in 1951 and 1959. Album Tracks 1. Once There Lived a Fool 2. A Friend of Johnny's 3. The Morning Side of the Mountain 4. Christmas Is for Children 5. It's All in the Game 6. All Over Again 7. Please, Mr. Sun 8. Forgive Me 9. My Girl 10. You Win Again 11. Sinner and Saint 12. Now and Then, There's a Fool Such As I 13. Take These Chains from My Heart 14. Baby, Baby, Baby 15. So Little Time 16.

Limited vinyl LP repressing in gatefold jacket. Thriller is the sixth solo studio album by Michael Jackson. It was released by Epic Records on November 30, 1982, as the follow-up to Jackson's critically and commercially successful 1979 album Off The Wall. Thriller explores similar genres to those of Off The Wall, including pop, post-disco, rock and funk. Recording sessions took place on April to November 1982 at Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angeles with a production budget of $750, 000, assisted by producer Quincy Jones. Seven singles were released from the album, all of which reached the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. In just over a year, Thriller became-and currently remains-the best-selling album of all time, with estimated sales of 65 million copies worldwide. It has become the first album ever to be certified 32 times multi-platinum for U.S. sales, marking more than 32 million sales shipped.
