Alexander O' Neal's greatest hits album!!!!!!!!!

Alexander O' Neal has another greatest hits album released today 8-24-04.i can't wait to buy it unlike the other greatest hits album the songs was edited. this one has the whole 10 min plus version of Innocent.To all of those who do not know who Alexander O' Neal, He was the original lead singer for The Time.He had money conflicts with Prince so he left. I am glad personally because he is better as a solo artist.ALSO THE S.O.S Band greatest hits is out today too which most of their hits was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.

I bought the TWO previous Alexander O'neal hits cd's. The second one I got contains full length versions of the tunes including "Innocent". It clocks in @ 10:32. The cd is titled
"The Best of Alexander O'neal". I'm listening to "Innocent" @ my pc right now from my cd.

The realease date for this cd is 10/95. I got mine about 7years ago. You can find the track
listing at www.allmusic.com. Could you tell me how this new collection differs from the cd
I just mentioned? Are there any remixed tracks?

I still can't believe "Sunshine" was omitted.

I love "Fake." It brings back childhood memories.


Your hair was long
but now it's short

You say: I got it cut
but I don't see no hair upon the floor.


That was my jam y'all.

He wasn't, he was the lead singer for Flyte Tyme, big difference.
Prince may be the purple Yoda, but Wendy & Lisa and Eric Leeds also sit on the Jedi Council.

Listening to the new greatest hits right now. Great music, great songs, great vocals. 10 min Inncocent and Criticize is as fresh today as anything on the radio. What happened to this wonderful type of music? Was it traded in for Neo Soul, P. Diddy and Usher? Maybe the new New Edition cd will have a Jimmy & Terry cut.
