Product Description
The Italian and American dance/funk/Euro-disco outfit Change began itscareer with the 1980 debut LP The Glow Of Love, a Billboard Top 10R&B/#29 pop album. On stand-outs including the title track and Searching, both featured on this essential 14-cut, career-spanning compilation, the innovative group showcased the vocal talents of Luther Vandross before he went on to solo stardom. Other highlights and more from Change's subsequent albums for Atlantic through 1985 include A Lover's Holiday, Hold Tight, This Is Your Time, and The Very Best In You.

An "absolute" joy to listen to, hit after hit filled with great old school hits from one of our generations best voices Luther Vandross!

Great disc the songs sound just like they came out yesterday and as a former songwriter and DJ I can say that this is a very mixable disc and I highly recommend it. It is well worth the asking price.l.

Yes they had a few hits, but I find that most of this Cd is filler.
Nice CD, BUT It's Missing A Key Song From 1985!! May 15, 2007

'The Very Best Of Change' is an almost perfect collection of the group's hits & more! Back in the day, I used to think Change copied Chic's musical formula, but now, It's apparent that they simply built on it & took it even further. When Change debuted in 1980 with 'A Lover's Holiday', Chic's unfortunate downfall was taking place at the same time. Aside from addictive basslines, guitar riffs, and great vocals (Luther Vandross' star grew with Change!!), the 2 groups are quite distinctive.
As for 'The Very Best Of Change', Atlantic / Rhino provides improved sound (when compare to 'The Best Of Chic' CD from 1991), and the detailed liner notes would've been better if rare photos were included. As for the tracklisting, it's quite stellar, but not perfect! Most of the group's hits from 1980 - 1985 are represented here, but I'd recommend a 'few changes' (no pun intended!). Replace the radio edit of 'A Lover's Holiday' with the 6+ minute full length version & also include the group's final hit, 'Mutual Attraction' (1985). There's enough room on the CD for these changes (I remastered my original CD to include the additional music!), so Atlantic / Rhino's mistake prevents the CD from getting 5 stars (IMO).
At any rate, I recommend 'The Very Best Of Change' (as well as 'The Glow Of Love' CD from 1980!) to fans who don't care to buy the expensive individual import CDs. Enjoy a blast from the past!
Peace, SD
