Herbie Hancock's star-studded The Imagine Project was several years in the making, recorded in seven countries with musicians from all over the globe. Hancock's band with producer/bassist Larry Klein, drummer Vinnie Colaiuta, percussionist Alex Acuña, and guitarist Lionel Loueke is a common denominator. Much of what's here is interpretations of well-known pop, folk, and soul songs. That said, The Imagine Project (named for the John Lennon song) feels more like an overreach than a seamless or successful series of collaborations.

This 1987 best-of compiles the work from A&M efforts that marked a stylistic change from her Vanguard years, yet a pretty consistent level of success. Relying on the work of other artists seemed to be more hit and miss during the A&M era. In Baez's interpretations of songs like Bob Dylan's "Simple Twist of Fate" and "Forever Young" and John Lennon's "Imagine," her pitch-perfect tone might strike some as unemotional, but her singing is engrossing nonetheless. Not surprisingly, Baez sounds the best here with the tracks that deviate from weighty issues. "Gracias a la Vida" (sung in Spanish) and the haunting "Di Da" (with Joni Mitchell) have her giving off more charm and emotion than usual. "Children and All That Jazz," from her best-selling 1975 album Diamonds & Rust, has a gorgeous, heavily produced '70s L.A. pop/rock style that suited her voice. Unlike many greatest-hit sets, Classics, Vol. 8 also offers strong live performances, including "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" and the CD closing "Amazing Grace." Classics, Vol. 8 has the strength of a regular release effort and more than captures the time frame and the artist it's spotlighting.

Ottawa-based duo One 2 One, formerly a synthesizer-pop act, have seen the light to the charts and it rests in jangly guitars and happy-go-lucky songs. On Imagine It's most compelling tracks, the spirit of the 60s lives on fused to 90s technology. Louise Reny's voice is the perfect instrument to capture those soft-focus Summer of Love vibes, all fresh-scrubbed vibrancy bordering on melodramatics. Leslie Howe, the musical/production mastermind behind dance sensation Alanis, has crafted a tasty aural confectionary with which to caress the melodies. Even though it's obvious that this is deliberate, premeditated, studio-manufactured stuff, it's impossible to deny the overall charm and attraction of the disc's pop hooks.
