nod I'm with Sexofit on this one.



I also own an obscure eighties album by White that kind of hooked me (1989's "The Man is Back"). I remember hearing a little bit from a song called "Follow That and See (Where It Leads Y'All") and the album really hooked me. A good mix of eighties dance pop /R&B and smoothering soul that Barry does so well. I also bought a double greatest hits CD around the same time but nothing after that.



I'd have to look out for this. I would prefer this to his 70's stuff. Too much orchastra on his classic stuff. Synth orchastra is what barry needs.


Well Sexofit, you are young so you wouldn't understand the beauty of him using a real orchestra. So, I don't mean no disrespect(we're still cool . Like I said before, this man made music for the lovers boff and it strictly for the grown and sexy (Old School would appreciate it more).

I hear ya. Me and an ex use to always hear music whilst having sex. But my other ex's didn't want any music, which is kind of a letdown.

Barry White died whilst I was on honeymoon, which is pretty damn selfish, when you think about it. Fancy slamming that downer on us at such a special time in our lives...disbelief

That song was co-written by a friend of mine, Jerry Ragovoy.

Also co-wrote (among many others)...
Time Is On My Side - Irma Thomas, Rolling Stones
Cry Baby - Garnet Mimms, Janis Joplin
Piece of My Heart - Erma Franklin, Janis Joplin, Faith Hill
(I believe he received an award for having this chart #1 R&B, Pop/Rock, Country)

Get It While You Can - Howard Tate, Janis Joplin
Eight Days On The Road - Foghat, Aretha Franklin
I Was Made For You - The Manhattans
Move Me No Mountain - Chaka Khan, Love Unlimited, Soul II Soul
Pata Pata - Miriam Makeba, Tito Puente, Wes Montgomery
Stop - Jimi Hendrix, James Gang, Sam&Dave

Also either arranged, produced or played keys for Miriam Makeba, Dusty Springfield, Bette Midler, Bonnie Raitt, B.B. King, Paul Butterfield Blues Band.

He was also the original owner of The Hit Factory...

The Hit Factory - the famed Manhattan music studio where John Lennon spent his last hours, Bruce Springsteen laid down tracks for "Born in the U.S.A," and Whitney Houston hit her highest notes - is shutting its doors.
Doomed by the digital revolution, the rock 'n' roll temple's owners said yesterday they will move their W. 54th St. headquarters to a smaller facility in Miami within a month.

The news saddened industry veterans and employees of The Hit Factory, which for three decades has been home to music royalty from Barbra Streisand to Beyonce.

"Every major artist has worked here," studio tech Luis Ghigliotty, 52, said outside the building, where the hallways are lined with platinum records.

Music producer Jerry Ragovoy opened the studio on W. 48th St. in 1968, initially as a place in the city where his own artists could record.

Pretty soon, other musicians were clamoring to work there, and Ragovoy began renting the room to the likes of Roberta Flack and Iron Butterfly.

"The studio was a Who's Who of rock 'n' roll," Ragovoy said. "Before you knew it, the calls were coming in all day long, and I found it difficult to book time myself."

In 1975, he sold the place to Ed Germano, who eventually moved it six blocks uptown to a plush 100,000-square-foot facility with seven recording rooms and five mastering suites.

There was a song Barry did in the 90s with Jam & Lewis called "Come On". I liked that song. You might like that one also.
