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.
