CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Time glowingly demonstrates Lionel Richie's ability to write and sing socially relevant tracks. However, much of the luster from his mid-'80s heyday is woefully absent. Perhaps it's the album's darker thematic hue that robs the project of the once-familiar Richie magic. "Zoomin'" is a melancholy-laced track that addresses world problems, and "Everytime" bears a sobering timbre that explores relationships' more stark realities. Conversely, the title track rings with a warm pop melody of hope, while "Closest Thing to Heaven" boasts dreamy, feel-good lyrics. As usual, the artist's music deftly blurs the boundaries between pop, R&B, and country music, underscoring Richie's award-winning universal creative approach. Still, one comes away with a hungry feeling, as if Richie has yet to regain his stride following his lengthy self-imposed recording exile. --J.R. Reynolds Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsA Hidden Gem L. HARRIS | Detroit, MI USA | 07/26/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "I have been a Lionel Richie fan for about 30 years or so. I was searching for something new and found this music that has been out for a number of years. I did not know of it till recently. Lionel doesn't get nearly enough airplay anymore. I loved listening to every song on Time. It was older than what I had hoped but, I was not disappointed that I purchased it unheard. If you love listening to Lionel, you'll enjoy it too." I really like this one @}->--- Little Miss Cutey | Melbourne, Australia | 07/21/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "Lionel Richie is so talented. He's written countless hits and sings soulfully and smoothly. He's a classic artist and one of the best around. This cd I still listen to often. It's got some upbeat songs and some great ballads. I especially love Lady (that he wrote but never sung until now - Kenny Rogers did that). Also is Stay, The Closest Thing To Heaven and Eveytime. While there were no major hits on this cd, it's still great (if not underrated) and I love it. It's for all Lionel fans and R&B fans alike." Zoomin'... Bete Noire | Vancouver, Canada | 11/17/1999 (4 out of 5 stars) "Without trying to recapture his past glories,Lionel Richie moves on with the...'Time'-a very solid effort showcasing a great singer/songwriter.Check out the groove in 'Zoomin',or the great guitar in the title track;he even reclaims 'Lady'making this record one of the most tasteful R&B releases of 1998."
