The One and Only Love Album is a double-disc collection of pop/rock songs, most of them adult contemporary ballads from the '70s and '80s. There are a number of great songs here -- "I'm Not in Love," "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart," "I Want to Make It with You," "More Than Words," "Wonderful Tonight," "Up Where We Belong," "All Out of Love," "Baby I Love Your Way," "I'd Really Like to See You Tonight," "Without You," "Fernando," "How Much I Feel," "Endless Love," "Nights in White Satin," and "True" -- but the song selection may be predictable for some tastes. At times, the album sounds just like an adult contemporary radio station, but then again, that's the point -- these are familiar songs presented in a familiar way. But it's silly to criticize this for predictability, since there aren't many soft rock collections of this nature as good as this on the market. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine Once upon a time, boys and girls, in the days of big lapels and the Rockford Files, there was a thing called AM radio, which poured forth a seemingly endless stream of seamlessly concocted pop songs, mostly sugar-sweet love ballads, heavy on the hooks and light on the hipness factor. The producers of THE ONE AND ONLY LOVE ALBUM apparently remember those days quite well, and they commemorate that period with a two-disc set. This compilation contains both classic '70s AM hits like Ambrosia's "How Much I Feel" and Abba's "Fernando," and a smattering of their '80s equivalents; Spandau Ballet's "True," Foreigner's "I Want To Know What Love Is," etc. If you want to immerse yourself in that post-Watergate, hot tub vibe, THE ONE AND ONLY LOVE ALBUM will take you there.   Technical Info Release Date : 03/31/1998 Original Release Date : 1998 Catalog ID : 555 610 Label : Polydor (USA) Number of Discs : 2 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00731455561029    Product Image
