The artistic successes chronicled on this second volume of his greatest hits shouldn't come as a surprise, then, despite the frequent input of ultracommercial producer Steve Barri, who'd crafted AM hits for acts as diverse as the Grass Roots and the post-Motown Four Tops. Even with some accommodations to trends (the disco beat of "The Soul of a Man," chicken-scratching guitars here, there, and everywhere), Bland kept on being Bland, cutting country songs ("Today I Started Loving You Again") and blues standards ("Goin' Down Slow") and investing Dan Penn's "I Hate You" with a unique pungency. This disc performs a valuable service in lifting the veil from an often-overlooked period in the career of one of American music's most important interpretive singers. --Rickey Wright If You Enjoy "Bobby Bland Greatest Hits Vol. 2: The ABC-Dunhill/MCA Recordings (CD)", May We Also Recommend:Customer Reviews for "Bobby Bland Greatest Hits Vol. 2: The ABC-Dunhill/MCA Recordings (CD)" by Bobby "Blue" Bland (Artist)There are no customer reviews yet.
