Comments:The Very Best of Aaron Neville<br /> Universal/A&M, 2000<br /> R&B / Soul / Jazz<br /> Bit Rate: 128-224 kbps<br /> <br /> [Tour]<br /> Date: 5-03-2008 <br /> City: New Orleans, LA <br /> Venue: Gospel Tent Fairgrounds <br /> <br /> "This is the album closest to my life, closest to my heart," says Aaron Neville. "TO MAKE ME WHO I AM expresses the real me more than any record I've ever made." <br /> <br /> "Great news for millions of Aaron Neville fans the world over: The man whose voice ranks with Nat Cole and Sam Cooke as an absolute American original has created a masterpiece, a multi-dimensional work offering an extraordinarily wide range of deep pleasures. Beyond the alluring autobiographical insights Aaron co-wrote five of the album's 12 cuts there are songs by hitmakers Babyface and Diane Warren. In addition, there is a long-awaited reunion with Linda Ronstadt who joins Neville for two stirring duets. <br /> <br /> In a dazzling array of style and mood, the four-time Grammy Award winner has gone back to the roots of his inspiration and forward to the avant-garde of romantic pop. In an age when so many artists deal in anger, Aaron deals in adoration, turning prayers into love songs and love songs into prayers. <br /> <br /> For a man whose celebrated career has spanned four decades and sold some 20 million records worldwide, including a dozen top-ten hits, he speaks of this album with fresh excitement. "This is a very personal project, and "To Make Me Who I Am," the title track, is the most personal song. It explains my journey from hell to heaven on earth. To me, heaven on earth is true love, plain and simple." The simplicity is striking. With his son Ivan on Piano, Aaron reveals a heartbreaking candor, singing "Once I was a deceiver, now I'm a believer." Rendered with the wisdom and soul of one who has been there and back, "To Make Me Who I Am" may be Neville's most moving performance. <br /> <br /> But that's only the first of several milestones. The re-information of the Linda Ronstadt/Aaron Neville duo results in a pair of gems. Will Jennings and Rodney Crowell's poignant "Please Remember Me" provides a perfect framework for the famous blending of two remarkable voices. And their remake of "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," produced by Tony Rich with a vocal arrangement by Roberta Flack, casts the classic in dramatically new light. <br /> <br /> Two modern songwriting masters, Diane Warren and Babyface, co-wrote "Say What's In Your Heart," an especially satisfying vehicle for Aaron's extra-sensitive vocal artistry. Warren also contributed to the haunting ballad "I Can't Change the Way You Don't Feel." <br /> <br /> The heart of TO MAKE ME WHO I AM is a series of songs co-written by Aaron. The frank honesty of the title track is carried over into "Sweet Amelia," a sweet piece of poetry set in Aaron's New Orleans during an age of innocence. "Amelia,"he says, "was my mother's name. All the music I grew up on - the music I loved - had an innocence, which still stays with me. Like the love it expressed, the music was pure." <br /> <br /> Purity is the theme not only of "Lovely Lady Dressed In Blue," a prayer straight of Aaron's childhood fashioned into a quiet meditation of sacred devotion, but purity is also the lyrical point of "God Made You For You." "The church of my childhood," says the singer steeped in the glories of doo-wop, "is a permanent part of my soul." <br /> <br /> With the help of Robbie Neville, Gordon Chambers and Bradley Spalter, Aaron also finished the super-soulful "Your Sweet and Smiling Eyes." When it comes to the high art of balladry, no one matches Aaron's vocal adornments and heartbreaking sincerity. "The little boy in me," Aaron testifies, "is the force that gives my style that certain feeling people identify with." Songs like "Yes, I Love You," bring out that feeling. <br /> <br /> "My passion," he continues," is to always sing songs that honor women. That's just who I am. I'm interested in basic emotions. I love songs like "Just 2 Be With You" by Marc Nelson and Darrell Spencer "that let me wear my heart on my sleeve. Yakira is singing with me, and she has a sweet sound. "What Did I Do To Deserve You" the Andy Goldmark/Jamie Houston composition/Tony Rich production "also has beautiful sentiment. It glorifies romance." <br /> <br /> Aaron Neville glorifies popular music. Even as his collaboration with the family-based Neville Brothers continues, his solo work expands and matures. TO MAKE ME WHO I AM is a testimony to that maturity, a singular record by one of the most gifted singers in the annals of our music. "Love is about salvation," says Aaron. "And what saved me was the kindness and compassion of my mother, the strength and wisdom of my father, and the love of God." <br /> <br /> The pure sincerity, that gentle and tender approach to song, is what turns TO MAKE ME WHO I AM into a listening experience of rare and long-lasting satisfaction." <br /> <br /> The Very Best of Aaron Neville<br /> 01 Tell It Like It Is <br /> 02 Over You <br /> 03 The Bells of St. Mary's<br /> 04 Don't Take Away My Heaven <br /> 05 Warm Your Heart <br /> 06 You Never Can Tell <br /> 07 Close Your Eyes <br /> 08 The Grand Tour <br /> 09 Louisiana 1927 <br /> 10 Everybody Plays the Fool <br /> 11 Don't Go, Please Stay <br /> 12 Angola Bound <br /> 13 A Change Is Gonna Come <br /> 14 Betcha By Golly Wow <br /> 15 Stardust (featuring: Rob Wasserman) <br /> 16 To Make Me Who I Am <br /> 17 Don't Know Much (featuring: Linda Ronstadt) <br /> 18 Feelings - bonus
