If you had a problem with my glowing assessment of the Bee Gees discography, get ready for my my latest pronouncement...
Barry White does not get nearly enough cool points considering he's basically a fat, black, American Serge Gainsbourg. Confident and sophisticated with a penchant for whispering all over orchestral sex magick.
Funky drums, harpsichords, sweet string arrangements... Music doesn't come any more refined.
If you are unfamiliar with his first two records, they are masterful works of extended soul brilliance!
