AWESOME SINGER~BRAVO RANDY CRAWFORD!!!
Rare vocal beauty is what Randy Crawford possesses along with loads of smoldering passion and deep emotional involvement with the meaning of any song this wonderous singer choses to do! This stunning collection is a great starting point for those beginning a musical journey with one the the greatest singers ever or for those of us already familiar with this classic artist who the more you play the more you fall in love! "Give Me The Night" is a soulfully dreamy opener that flows so beautifully into Randy's athem "Street Life" with The Jazz Crusaders featuring Joe Sample on keyboards which was a huge success for Miss Crawford. "Street Life" was also used in the soundtrack of the Burt Reynold's film "Sharky's Machine" along with great songs by Sarah Vaughan and Peggy Lee and Randy truly shines alongside these legends and makes one realize that this is indeed another legendary singer! "One Hello" is a gorgeous ballad that Randy turns inside out and sings with such passion that I get a rush every time but for those who need more convincing you will go no further than her extraordinary definitive performance of the John Lennon classic "Imagine" that gets a standing ovation everytime when Miss Crawford performs this in concert!! The beauty of this version is spellbinding as is Randy's smoldering vocal on "Who's Crying Now" which features a flowing jazzy arrangement with a soulful sax plus Joe Sample on keyboards! Standouts abound in this awesome collection and a true classic is what becomes of Bob Dylan's "Knockin' On Heavens Door" in Randy's hands. Soul infused vocal passion is stunning in this masterpiece with guest artists Eric Clapton and David Sanborn perfectly complimenting Miss Crawford who gives the performance of a lifetime and this should have received a Grammy Award!! For shame to the music industry for not really getting behind this incredible artist who is a once in a lifetime rare experience!!! Do not miss this collection or artist if you love great vocals and the closing self-penned "In My Life" is a revealing classic while "Everything Must Change" is another vocal masterpiece among the many in this priceless collection!! Bravo Randy!!! You are truly an awesome wonder...

Serving it up Randy's Way!
Randy Crawford's greatest hits covers her impressive years within the music business. Her voice is so dynamic, raw and very much deserves to be among the legends such as Ella, Bille and Etta, but I don't think she's seen that way. Street Life is one of my all time favorite songs. Cajun Moon would have to be the second. The greatest hits piece also emphasizes Randy's broad personal taste in music. She's not narrow minded which I love. There is a wonderful version of Bob Dylan's Knocking on Heaven's Door, which she simply does justice to. Also a jazzy version of the Steve Perry/Journey song Who's Cryin Now which I love. Steve Perry is the greatest voice in rock. He is so hot and powerful. I fear anyone taking on a song that has his trademark on it, but Randy does a good job with it. I was disappointed that songs like Bye Bye did not make this album. She's certaintly had more good songs over the years than this album collected, but it's still worth buying.

WHERE IS "ONE DAY I'LL FLY AWAY"?
okay so how can you put together a best of randy crawford album WITHOUT "one day ill fly away", her greatest track?

why do these record companies do this when they put together best of albums? they always, ALWAYS miss out a vital track, no matter who the artist is.
