Michael Bolton

The U.K. collection The Very Best of Michael Bolton – initially released in 2005, repackaged as a slide pack in 2007 – is a good overview of the singer's peak years, containing all the big hits except "Love Is a Wonderful Thing" (only natural, considering the lawsuit surrounding the song) in a 17-track compilation that should give most listeners all the Bolton they need.

Bolton Swings Sinatra: The Second Time Around is an album by Michael Bolton, produced by Alex Christensen, arranged and conducted by Chris Walden. Bolton records songs originally made notable by Frank Sinatra.

"The One Thing" is an album by Michael Bolton, released on November 16, 1993. Although this album contained the hit "Said I Loved You…But I Lied", which reached #6 in the U.S., it did not match the sales of his previous two albums and was an early sign of his faltering chart success after 1993. Nevertheless, the album was a respectable hit on its own going 3xPlatinum in the US only and selling approximately 6 million copies worldwide.

Soul Provider is the sixth studio album by American recording artist Michael Bolton. The album was released on June 19, 1989 by Columbia Records. This was the album that turned Bolton into a superstar. Supported by numerous successful singles that reached the top of the charts worldwide, the album achieved longevity on the Billboard Top 200. It reached #3 in the US, going 6x Platinum and sold over 12,500,000 million copies worldwide.

Given the late-2010s influx of symphonic easy listening albums reviving old rock and R&B records, it's not surprising that a living, breathing singer would take advantage of this trend. Michael Bolton is the one who steps into this breach, issuing A Symphony of Hits in early 2019. Recorded with the West Australian Philharmonic Orchestra, the album still contains hints of slick adult contemporary – there's nary a string to be heard on a stiffly funky "Soul Provider," the whole thing has a patina of radio-ready gloss – yet it delivers what it promises: it has Michael Bolton singing with an orchestra.

Though Michael Bolton's Love Songs isn't tremendously different than his Greatest Hits 1985-1995 – his popular body of work is virtually nothing but love songs – this collection will probably please his biggest fans. Gathering smash hits from 1987 to 1997, the album includes "Soul Provider," "Said I Loved You … But I Lied," "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You," "Missing You Now," and "When a Man Loves a Woman." Though it's not quite as definitive as Greatest Hits 1985-1995, anyone looking to own just one Michael Bolton album wouldn't go wrong with this one, either.

Singer/songwriter Michael Bolton emerged in the mid-'80s as a major soft rock balladeer. Originally, he recorded under his real name, Michael Bolotin, turning up on RCA Records in the mid-'70s singing cover tunes and his own blue-eyed soul songs in a voice reminiscent of Joe Cocker. He then became the lead singer of Blackjack, a heavy metal band that made two albums for Polydor before splitting up in the early '80s. Looking to relaunch his career, he changed his name to Michael Bolton and signed to Columbia Records as a solo artist in 1983. Bolton's achievements include selling more than 75 million records, recording eight top 10 albums and two number-one singles on the Billboard charts, as well as winning multiple American Music Awards and Grammy Awards.
