3.0 out of 5 stars
5 Stars for the Original CD, 3 for Special Edition due to Edits Used,
By
This review is from: Princess (Audio CD)
Princess
A long overdue and in-demand reissue (Original CD goes for 3-figure sums on auction sites) has unfortunately been partially messed up by the reissue company. The quality of the songs are there, but the original running times of the tracks have been shortened to accomodate a host of remixes/demos as Bonus Tracks. On its first release it was only 8 Tracks, but compared to the Original Cassette/CD (and even LP for pity's sake!), 3 of the main 8 tracks on the Special Edition differ as follows: 1. In The Heat Of A Passionate Moment Original Running Time : 07:49 Special Edition Running Time: 03:33 2. I'll Keep On Loving You Original Running Time : 07:29 Special Edition Running Time: 04:04 6. Tell Me Tomorrow Original Running Time : 04:42 Special Edition Running Time: 03:58 This is quite a chunk off the running time of the main album, and I would have been happier purchasing this reissue if less sub-standard mixes were included whilst preserving the original album cuts in their entirety (which is what buyers upgrading from vinyl want?). Cherry Pop are normally very good with their reissues & researching, but I can't help feeling the priority has been skewed & it's an opportunity missed. Oh well, maybe a "Special" Special Edition will be available in another 20-odd years.....

Anytime's the right time,
By Wallace "Pops Gr8" (Great Britain) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Princess (Audio CD)
I am glad this Album has been rereleased on CD. My cassette packed in years ago and I only had 'Say I'm your number one' on a compilation CD.
This album still sounds fresh and Princess is a brilliant singer. She also wrote 'Just a tease' which is a funky song with a nice guitar hook. Stock Aitken Waterman produced this album. They also wrote all the albums other songs which have a mature,soulful feel throughout. It is great to hear songs like 'Tell me Tomorrow' again. 'Anytime's the right time' is proberbly nearer the upbeat pop style that Stock Aitken Waterman are best known for. I have always loved 'If it makes you feel good.' This song later appeared on Mandy's album and Donna Summer's 'Another place and time' album. The bonus remixed tracks are quite interesting. I really like the Promo version of 'After the love has gone.' Also the Demo version of 'Say I'm your number one' sounds like it is ready to be sampled by a current rap artist. A good album that deserves a wide audience.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding!,
By Neil B ""HINRG BOY"" (Bury, Lancashire, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Princess (Audio CD)
This has always been one of my favourite modern soul/dance albums of the 80's..Finally crafted songs with catchy hooklines and killer synth work by those wonderful PWL boys..This album is finely crafted, and a perfect example of the smooth, soulful sound that PWL were producing in the early to mid eighties, before embarking on their bubblegum/HI-NRG pop. Princess delivers killer vocals on evry track, and proves herself a talented lady.
Its wonderful to finally get this album on CD (Special edition) which includes a lovely colour booklet and various remixes and unreleased demos..worth eevry penny!
