| Aaron Neville - The Very Best of Aaron Neville Band: Aaron Neville Tracks: - Tell It Like It Is - Over You - Bells - Don't Take Away My Heaven - Warm Your Heart - You Never Can Tell - Close Your Eyes - Grand Tour - Louisiana 1927 - Everybody Plays the Fool - Don't Go, Please Stay - Angola Bound - Change Is Gonna Come - Betcha by Golly, Wow - Stardust - Use Me - ...To Make Me Who I Am - Don't Know Much I admire Aaron,s Neville's voice so much! i would rather listen to Aaron Neville and Carlos Santana than anyone,well Elvis had a great set of pipes also...But now Aaron is my top pick for gospel music also.He is real and all he has to Move are his vocal chord's to get my attention.It's that "quiver"thing he does and his high pitched notes that amaze me...I'd Love to hear him and Elvis singing gospel together or Aaron singing with Santana playing! But that is a personal Dream that won't happen, unless I do some mixin',myself! Fine, Almost Complete Overview This CD covers Neville's A&M solo albums and throws in 3 ringers: His hit duet with Linda Ronstadt ("Don't Know Much") and 2 classic solo sides from the 60's (both of which sound great and are the original cuts). There's also a fine cover of Sam Cooke's "A Change Is Gonna Come" from the Neville Brother's album Yellow Moon, and a selection from Rob Wasserman's Duets album. What's missing are the records Aaron made after "Tell It Like It Is" from the late 60's and mid 70's. For that I strongly recommend Rounder Records superb "My Greatest Gift" - The Classic Aaron Neville. As an overview of his A&M years this is good, indeed. Tracks like his covers of "The Grand Tour" and "Lousiana 1927" show his taste in great songs. And ballads like "Betcha By Golly Wow" and "Warm Your Heart" are carried along by his incredible voice. Good liner notes and excellent sound. If you're just getting in to Aaron Neville's solo career this is the best collection out there. Everybody Plays The Fool...But you don't have to be one! Such a disappointment. I purchased this CD with the expectation that Track #4 "Don't Take Away My Heaven," would be the single/radio airplay version that was released in 1992 instead of the original CD version that appears on his album. I specifically bought this CD in hopes of having the radio mix...but alas, as Aaron sings, "Everybody plays the fool," and boy was I the fool this time...so be weary that the non-radio/single remix of "Don't Take Away My Heaven" appears on this disappointing CD.
