On The Jukebox: George Michael - “Faith (Remastered Edition)”

[2010 Remaster of the original 1987 release (to which: a remaster to mark the 23rd anniversary is...a choice).  The album very much feels like George deciding to embrace the idea of getting to change up his audience (and going the “grown and sexy” route as a consequence).

Standard package for a remastered edition: the original album all cleaned up and sounding shiny plus a bonus disc featuring bonus tracks (”Fantasy”, live versions of “I Believe (When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever)” and “Love’s In Need Of Love Today”), instrumentals (”Faith” and “Kissing A Fool”) and remixes (”Hard Day (Shep Pettibone Remix)”, “Monkey (7″ Single Edit)“, “Monkey (A Capella And Beats Mix)” and “Monkey (Jimmy Jam And Terry Lewis Remix)”).

Because this classic from 1⃣9⃣8⃣6⃣ was unlike anything The Human League had released and the collaboration with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis resulted in this haunting ballad. #Human

I discuss Patti Labelle's solo career and I continue to be highly scathing about her works despite some of them being, well, quite great. Still, I might reserve most of my criticism for Patti Labelle's 90's opus but I think the reason for that might be that her 80's could've been hard to top during the time I mentioned, so she settled into a pattern in the latter period. She made many records in the vein of Flame, which are nice, i.e. there's nothing wrong with them, yet this is also a problem. She and her collaborators are professional on them, which could be another issue. I agree, should she pull of something else instead? A good question to add here would be – would she be even allowed to do that? If not, why so?

A-T-4 105 Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis

Jam & Lewis had a few hits under their black fedora hats by 1984 including Just Be Good To Me by the S.O.S. Band, and Encore for Cheryl Lynn. Just Be Good To Me had gotten into the Top 20 around the world, including the UK, and in the Top 3 on both the US Hot Black Singles and Hot Dance charts in the US (US charts are weird!). Encore hit the top spot of the US R&B Chart. Jam & Lewis would continue with these artists, develop a new artist for Tabu (the label the S.O.S. Band were signed to) Cherrelle, and give two established acts their biggest hits in years

Cherrelle - I Didn't Mean To Turn You On (12" Version)

Thelma Houston - You Used To Hold Me So Tight (Dub Version)

Change - Change of Heart (Special Extended Mix)

S.O.S. Band - No One's Gonna Love You
