Music reviews of Candi: Music Speaks Louder Than Words

Music Review: Candi Is Still Sweet!
Rating: 3 Stars

It is always great to get 2 albums on one Cd, and with Candi Staton you really can't go wrong. The first album "Candi" marked her Warner Brothers debut in 1974 with the following tracks:
1. "Here I Am Again"- A gut wrenching soul song that also appears on "The Best of Candi Staton."
2. "Your Opening Night"- This is a typical Staton style, storytelling-phrasing about love that has gone away.
3. "A Little Taste of Love"- Has a cool soulful beat that allows Candi's vocals to shine.
4. Going Through The Motions"- A nice ballard that builds at a slow and steady pace, with a nice hook that just makes you feel good listening to it.
5. Stop and Smell The Roses"- A nice cover of the Mac Davis-Doc Severinsen tune.
6. "We Can Work It Out"- Typical southern soul music sound, although tune does not really stand out.
7. As Long As He Takes care of Home"- This was the only song on the album that made the top 10 R&B hit(#6). It's message was straightforward, "You can mess around with anyone you like, as long as you take care of business with me in the bedroom." This tune is an upbeat, finger popping song that was very risque at the time.
8. "But I Do"- Candi's vocals shine on this soul-felt message song, as she sings with conviction about the ups and downs of love.
9. "Can't Stop Being Your Fool"- Candi's strong sound coupled with the powerful words runs the emotional gamut and only comes from experience.
10. "Clean Up America"- Another message type song with a funky and soulful beat.
11. "Six Nights and a Day"- A great song with a funky sound that also appears on "The Best of Candi Staton."

In 1977 Candi recorded "Music Speaks Louder Than Words", which was the follow up album to "Young Hearts Run Free." Here is a brief overview of the playlist:
12. "Nights On Broadway"- Candi delivers a decent disco type version of the Bee Gees song, but not strong enough to chart.
13. "You Are"- A funky song by "Mr. Funk" himself, Geroge Clinton.
14. "A Dreamer of a Dream"- This vibrant song is reminiscent of "Young Hearts Run Free" and was #37 on the R&B charts in 1977.
15. "Music Speaks Louder Than Words"- A simple song, but nothing special outside of Candi's great vocals and a nice acapella ending highlighting her smooth sounding voice.
16. "Cotton Canday"- Nice instrumental cut that probably sounds even better while driving a car on a sunny day.
17. "Listen To The Music"- Although it only charted at #90 (R&B), it was a nice interpretation of a 70's favorite.
18. "When You Want Love"- This song could have been a more successful tune, had they focused more on the disco component opposed to the pop influences.
19. "One More Chance On Love"- I first fell in love with this song on "The Best of Candi Staton" CD because of her strong vocals and her heart wrenching last cry for a chance on love.
20. "Main Thing"- This was just okay for me.
21. "Before The Next Teardrop Falls"- Candi could have probably had some success as a country singer because this tune sounds like the real thing. It is a good rendition of a classic tune.

This album is great to have if you want to make your 70's Candi Staton collection complete. For the first timer, I would recommend "The Best of Candy Staton", along with "Candi Staton", the album she recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, which is excellent!!!!
