Greatest Love Songs

GREATEST LOVE SONGS (Hip-O Records), released January 28, 2003, collects 17 of the hit songs and fan favorites from the swingin' '60s and early '70s – eight of them U.S. Top 40s – that set the emotion in motion.

At once rousing and intimate, Joe Cocker's Greatest Love Songs gathers some of his most romantic performances from the '60s through the '90s, including the classic "You Are So Beautiful" and his hit duet with Jennifer Warnes, "Up Where We Belong." Covers of rock love songs like "Just Like a Woman," "Something," and "Darling Be Home Soon" dominate the album, and Cocker's warm, soulful delivery makes each of these tracks a highlight. "That's the Way Her Love Is," "Heart Full of Rain," and some of the other more recent performances on the collection suffer from over-production and don't quite equal the spark of Cocker's previous material; fortunately, Greatest Love Songs features a fair portion of his earlier work, with songs like "The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress," "Performance," and "If I Love You" also among the collection's standouts. Spanning smooth ballads and fiery declarations of love, Greatest Love Songs is a cohesive but nuanced compilation of Cocker's romantic side.

Featured here on our 100 Greatest Love Songs set are some of the biggest names in popular music such as Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Cliff Richard, Sam Cooke and Buddy Holly.

2010 two CD collection of romantic love songs by one of the most respected and beloved R&B/Soul artists of all time. Rolling Stone Magazine named Marvin Gaye in their #10 of Greatest Singers of All Time, and their #20 Greatest Artists of All Time: an incredible achievement for any artist. Features 40 tracks including 'Let's Get It On', 'Sexual Healing', 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough', 'How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)' and many others.

This CD will bring back so many memories. Funny too, how you really recall all the words to most of the songs. I had a few of the albums by Engelbert, but Katrina swept them away. What a joy to find all of them on one CD! I would highly recommend this collection to anyone who loves a voice as smooth as Jack Daniels, who loves candle light and who loves being in love.
