Since the break-up of teen duo Wham! in 1986, George Michael has constantly had to reinvent himself as a credible master of various musical styles. Ladies And Gentlemen charts this journey, from his duets with pop elite such as Aretha Franklin (I Knew You Waiting (For Me)) and Elton John (Don t Let The Sun Go Down On Me), to dance floor classics such as Too Funky and Fastlove and bleak, evocative numbers such as Jesus To A Child and A Different Corner. The songs are arranged on two complementing discs: the slower, ballady productions are on the first disc (for the heart), and the more dancey, poppy numbers are on the second (for the feet). The compilation also includes three tracks specially recorded for the album, most notably his duet with Mary J Blige on the Stevie Wonder classic As. --John Galilee

george the terrible - Oh dear oh dear . Despite all Georgee does to make himself a total laughing stock , out the good folk of this world dash to get another slab of his genius in concert or on CD s such as this . Honestly people , you can do better . Not one of these dirges sticks in the mind long enough to be forgettable , they just drift through the mind with the impact of a car insurance advert , but at least you need to have car insurance . Take it from me you really don t have to listen to George . Your ears not were designed to be used so badly .

Wham Magic Man - Before Wham George Michael was `discovered` singing in a mod band by pop mogul Hughie Gadson and the rest they say is `pop history``.Hu launched George on the road to superstardom and deserves his place in pop history.Gadson also discovered EMF and co-wrote their hit Your Unbelievable - but it is George Michael we are here to talk about and this album is a tribute to rhe peter pan of pop.

Ultimate Indulgence. - Oh George, I do love you. This is a fabulous, fantastic, wonderful album. It is full of milestone music, things that relate to various stages in my life. There are so many tracks that have such relevance for me, A Different Corner, You have been Loved, Jesus to a Child, Father Figure, Somebody to Love, to name just a few! There are no disappointing tracks on this album, nothing that I don t like, just sheer quality, perfect music and vocals. I love One More Try, it moves me to tears, in fact, I love EVERYTHING. I think that George Michael is a true genius, a true performer, a true Magician. He can make music do so many things, make you laugh, make you dance, make you cry, make you sing. It s just perfect. Like George.

Wham the Mainman - I danced to all these songs at Charlie Chans and the Epping Forest Country Club.George is the mainman and Faith will always remind of Julie Taylor the exotic go-go dancer / stripper at The Sir John Franklin.Every track is a classic and this collection is a fitting tribute to a pop legend.

Bottle of wine required,chill guaranteed but don t drive ! - I was a closet George Michael fan,secretly liking the music but frightened in case anybody found out.It was my secret.Then i watched a GM documentary and realised just how seriously George took his music.Demanding of all who worked with him in trying for perfection.His Wham period was enjoyable in bubble-gum way but this Guy was a serious musician.I decided to add to my collection with this Album and it blew me away.First time i played it ,i wanted to reach for the wine and chill right down,WOW! I played it in the car expecting it to be great,eight speakers,but i couldn t get the same feeling.At home,with the wine,it chilled me down so all problems were forgotten.This is a fantastic way to relax and unwind.The Album has duets with Aretha,Elton & Mary J Blige and a track with Queen,Ballads,Funky Pop and Dance,it s superb.GM might lead a colourful personal life,who cares?, but he is up there with the Greats if this Album is anything to go on.Buy it along with a bottle of wine and relax like never before.
