CD Reviews

Dancing Moon is a Triumph
Thomas Novak | Shelton, CT USA | 08/04/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Jim Weatherly is best known for his Top 10 compositions for Gladys Knight ("Neither One of Us", "Midnight Train to Georgia", "Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me") and his own Top 20 Hit "The Need to Be". The prolific writer has had about a dozen albums out on numerous labels.
This collection entitled "Dancing Moon" may be his finest so far. His relaxed, warm sounding voice makes these 10 songs sound like old friends after the first listen. Jim produced and wrote all of the songs. They are all beautifully arranged and orchestrated. The stand out songs for me were the title song "Dancing Moon", the haunting "No Blues For Susie" and one of the most beautiful ballads ever written "You're The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me".
Please do yourself a favor and discover a true tunesmith...Jim Weatherly. You will not be disappointed."
