"Released during a period of lackluster activity wherein "The Maestro" was being overshadowed by the likes of Keith Sweat, Johnny Gill, and other romantic crooners, "The Right Night & Barry White" is an effort that deserved greater attention than it received. The album represents some of the artist's best 80's work.Featuring "Sho You Right," a highly charged dance tune that has White's signature saying, the disc has other equally satisfying selections. The evocative "For Your Love (I'll Do Anything)" is so stimulating that it sets fire to one's sound system. "There's a Place (Where Love Never Ends," like most of White's work showcases the rhythm and string sections, respectively. Their use never overshadows White's strong vocals; they are a perfect accompaniment to Barry's "basso profundo." The remaining cuts are superbly delivered with the passion and musical wizardry that one expects from the man who made the bedroom his melodic playground.Sleep tight like Barry's music always is!"
