Producer: Joe Sasfy (Compilation) Distributor: WEA (Distributor) Notes: Liner Note Author: Billy Altman. On Time-Life's #1 Soul Hits of the '80s, ten years of R&B chart-toppers are whittled down to a number small enough to fit onto one disc. One can only imagine how wonderful it would be to have enough volumes to cover all of the number one hits; this only seems like a good start. No emphasis is placed on any part of the decade, so there's plenty of range between the years, from Yarbrough & Peoples' "Don't Stop the Music" to Bobby Brown's "My Prerogative." Even when the passing of time hasn't been kind to certain songs -- see DeBarge's "Rhythm of the Night" and Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" in particular -- they're at least funny, like a pair of British Knights shoes. ~ Andy Kellman
