Tyrone Davis hit No. 1 on the R&B chart and broke the Pop Top 5 with two slices of incandescent Chicago soul, "Can I Change My Mind" (1968) and "Turn Back the Hands of Time" (1970). Soaked in regret, the singles matched the Mississippi native's deep-blue vocal style with sophisticated arrangements. Included with those classics on the first half of this collection are more examples of the brew, which also produced knockouts like "Turning Point" and the epic "I Had It All the Time." Davis left the indie Dakar/Brunswick firm in the mid-'70s for Columbia; <I>The Best</I>'s handful of tracks from this era isn't as dazzling, but does feature three more high-charting records. His return to smaller labels produced '80s hits that brought his blues roots back toward the front of the mix. While "Mind" and "Hands" are the undeniable highlights here, much of the rest points up Davis's many strengths. It's sure to bring welcome attention to this often-unsung star. <I>--Rickey Wright</I>

Oops.......2006-11-10

My mistake, I accidentally ordered the wrong CD. But if this was the "Best of", I'm glad I never heard the regular Tyrone stuff. Anybody want a CD that has never even been played in its entirety?

ONE OF THE BEST !.......2006-06-08

Soul Heaven Gained Another Great One in Tyrone Davis . His hits are everlasting . God rest his soul !!

Excellent from a true "old schooler".......2005-11-02

My personal favorite from Tyrone Davis was "Are You Serious" - this was during my early high school years. I remember playing the album over and over on the old Curtis Mathes component system. This CD turned me on to other great TD tunes that are a little before my time. This CD is worth getting if you really appreciate a genuine Southern soul voice, that can easily crank out sultry ballads (i.e. "In the Mood") as well as nice dance hits ("Hands of Time"). Other personal favorites are

"A Little Bit of Lovin'"
"There it Is"
"I Had it All the Time"
"Give it Up, Turn it Loose"

Why I am pleased with this item.......2005-08-19

I am plesed with this item because I have trouble finding oldies classics in the R&B field. Amazon.com has made my ouest a lot easier.

Simply Great.......2003-11-13

I bought this CD for my dad's birthday, but I may need to order another copy because I'm currently listening to it as I type. A Very good cd, from start to finish. This took me back to my childhood. A must have for Soul Music fans-every song is good. Highly recommended.
