CD Reviews

Songs God made to blossom forever ( EVERGREENS )

Allen Dillingham | Cincinnati, Ohio USA | 03/11/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Chi-Lites are one of the best groups out there and I know this because I have all of their recordings and i've personally worked on the same stage with them in the 70's. Songs like Oh Girl, The Coldest Day In My Life and many others will always be around and I think everyone should own them in their collection."

CLASSIC SOUL LIVES ON!!!

william woodruff | Pittsburgh, Pa. USA | 09/24/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Chi-lites never sounded better than on the 3 disc from TOO GOOD TO BE FORGOTTEN. The harmony, orchestrations, and phrasing of lead singer Eugene Record will immediately take you back to younger days. If you don't sing along with this group, you're soul-less. You will never tire of this great music."

Soul music at its best

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Chi lites helped to define "soul music" that many of my contemporaries danced to,or fell in love to. Eugene Record's writing talents, combined with his stirring falsetto voice, set the stage for other groups around the country to emulate. This album is a MUST for all collectors, or anyone who loves great music."
