Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Lulu w/Mickie rowing the boat Comment: Lulu was a 1960's English girl singer, but not like the softly sung Celia Black or the whispered Sandy Shaw, who had pleasant important hits on American Top 40 radio. She was harder edged than Dusty Springfield, who had a folk background. LuLu had a deeper range that edged close to a grrrrrrrrrr as opposed to Dusty's come hither hmmmmmmmmmmm. Example: Lulu's biggest hit: "To Sir With Love" (1967) from the movie of the same name. Lulu was an actress in the movie, looking perfectly as girls did then. Dusty's big hit, "The Look of Love" was in the movie "Casino Royale".(1967) Many will argue over the passion over these vocals. Lulu wore fishnet stockings in "To Sir With Love" Dusty just sang.. Enuf said! After a few attempts at Mickie Most produced record hits, including Top 40 hits like Neil Diamond's "Boat That I Row" and " Without Him" by Harry Nilsson and 45's produced by Led Zepp's John Paul Jones, Lulu had a long lasting '70's hit, ""Oh Me Oh My I'm a Fool For You Baby". Lulu can be seen on PBS during Pledge Weeks. She looks terrific and sings like she always will be adoring fans. AS we will her... Customer Rating: Summary: fine retrospective from a fireball singer !!! Comment: From Crayons to Perfume: The Best of Lulu is an excellent single CD retrospective that truly does give her best! Lulu sang as clear as a bell; and her voice was quite charming. I also like the CD artwork. "Shout" features Lulu with The Luvvers before she went solo; her voice does indeed shrill as other reviewers noted! "Leave A Little Love" has Lulu sounding much better; her excellent diction bolsters her performance and the melody is quite good. The backup vocalists help the number along, too. Listen also for her huge hit entitled "To Sir With Love" from the movie of the same name. "To Sir With Love" is probably the biggest hit she ever had in retrospect; and Lulu sounds wonderful when she sings this awesome ballad. "The Boat The I Row" has that `60s rockin' beat that still stays light enough to fit somewhat into the pop category at least most of the way; and I really like "The Boat That I Row." "Me, The Peaceful Heart" has Lulu again singing at her best; the percussion and drums carry the bulk of the melody but Lulu still holds her own very well. "Sad Memories" also has that `60s rockin' beat that could also fit into pop; and Lulu never sounded better! "Without Him" places Lulu right in the spotlight and the musical arrangement has excellent features courtesy of the strings and percussion. Lulu sings "Without Him" with all her heart and soul; you can tell when you listen to this number. "Oh Me Oh My (I'm A Fool For You Baby)" sure does get the royal treatment from Lulu who sings this so sweetly you won't forget this anytime soon! Great strings on "Oh Me Oh My (I'm A Fool For You Baby)," too. "After The Feeling Is Gone" is a torchy love ballad that shines when Lulu sings it; I predict that you will like "After The Feeling Is Gone" very much. "The Man Who Sold The World" really rocks nicely with a `60s beat that impresses me; the musical arrangement stuns me with its creativity. Listen also for "I Could Never Miss You (More Than I Do);" this song ends the album with Lulu still at her best. Lulu never misses a beat--and the backup vocalists harmonize so well, too. Overall, this is one CD Lulu's fans can't afford to miss. I highly recommend this CD for people who like oldies but goodies--as well as great music from the years of "The British Invasion." Customer Rating: Summary: Any truth to this? Comment: Wikipedia claims John Bonham of Led Zeppelin plays on Lulu's "Everybody's Got To Clap". Anyone have any verification? Customer Rating: Summary: Multi -Label Lulu CD Best Of IS The Best! Comment: There is not a CD of Lulu's that is more career encompassing than this CD. It features ALL of her biggest & best hits in the US, including many only found on this CD. I love it for the songs that she did for ATCO, which include the phenomenal OH ME OH MY [ I'M A FOOL FOR YOU BABY ] - blue eyed soul at it's best. AFTER THE FEELING IS GONE is another great song too! Of course, it has every US hit from all the labels she recorded for on this from SHOUT through TO SIR WITH LOVE to I COULD NEVER MISS YOU [ MORE THAN I DO ]. Next, we need the original ATCO albums released on CD - NEW ROUTES and MELODY FAIR. It is inexplicable how these classic albums from 1969 & 1970 are not on CD yet anywhere in the world! Lulu continues recording and touring , and is certainly visible & viable in the world today. Look at her appearance on AMERICAN IDOL. Let's hope some label issues her ATCO recordings in full soon. Long overdue Lulu. This CD is a must! Customer Rating: Summary: Terrific sound quality! Comment: "To Sir With Love" is so clean, it's sounds as if you're in the studio. Comes as no surprise to this reviewer, always having good luck with Rhino releases. Collectors will also like the fact this CD includes Lulu's last hit from the early 80's: "I Could Never Miss You", a hard to find single until Rhino included it in the compliation. More Reviews
