Music reviews of Sweet Life: His Greatest Hit Singles
Music Review: greatest hits...but, missing 3 other songs
Rating: 4 Stars
I bought this CD the day it was released and i was hoping it would feature all of Paul's his and some new songs since he hasn't release a new album since 1981's amazing, but underrated, "Cool Night"album. instead, it's all of Paul's charted hits (both country & pop). that's still fine with me it's better than nothing. from his r&b/pop remake of the Jarmels hit, "A Little Bit Of Soap",his own take on the Beach Boys obscure version of "Darlin'" with a little help from Susan Collins, his synth-southern style r&b version of The Friends Of Distinction's "Love Or Let Me Be Lonely" to the beautiful country-pop style of "Sweet Life" & "Ride 'Em Cowboy", Paul can do no wrong with any of the songs he structure. tight harmonies, nice keyboard work, incredible, if sometimes over-produced work which it didn't me at all. his weird keyboard is incredible from the beautiful synth/rhodes/piano funky guitar inspirational of "Do Right" (tight harmonies on the bridge of that song), to the pretty country-pop happiness of "Sweet Life" (co-wtitten by Susan Collins). Paul's weird keys on "Superstar" (with a small cameo vocal appearance by Peabo Bryson) & "Thinking Of You" (with a Beach Boysesque harmonies by Paul's ex-co-producer/engineer/musican Ed Seay) are a knockout. his "poppish" songs from the "Cool Night" album are a class(ic) of its own. the title cut with its haunting synths/guitar (slide solo) caputures the magic of the early 80's along with my 2nd all-time favorite song from Paul. i'm talking about the overlooked, underrated knockout, almost new-wave synth/rhodes wall-of-sound drumming, no guitar song "'65 Love Affair" #6 hit in the spring of '82. of course my #1 favorite song of Paul's and yours is the haunting, but beautiful "I Go Crazy" with its piano/rhodes/synth/B-3organ mixed with a little wailing steel guitar, beautiful strings arr. by the late, great Gene Page (who also did "Sweet Life" & "Darlin'").along with some classic bass & guitar lines thrown in to the mix and you got a classic #7 hit in the spring of'78. you can't tell if it's a pop,country or an r&b song, but who cares? it's now a classic. we don't want to forget the country songs he had hits with in the '80's: " I Won't Take Less Than Your Love" with Tanya Tucker & Paul Overstreet & "You're Still New To Me" with Marie Osmond. both #1's, both co-written by Overstreet. my only complaint is that there are 3 songs missing from this collection. "Cry Just A Little", "It Takes Two To Tango" from "The Karate Kid" & "If We Just Get Through This Night" from "About Last Night". that's why that one star is removed.maybe because Paul probably had some bad memories about the latter 2 songs in the'80s. Like everybody else, I,too am waiting patiencely for a new album Paul; but until then, this greatest collection will do.
