4 out of 5 stars "Magic just starting to wear off".......2007-02-04

At the beginning of a new decade L.T.D. release this album after the somewhat dissapointing Devotion from a year earlier and sparks really start to fly right off the bat with the midtempo "Where Did We Go Wrong". For years I never knew who sung this song and that is because Jeffrey Osborne sings this song in a lower register than he does on most songs by the band. This album is worth it just for that song and the inspirational "Shine On". Lovers Everwhere is also one of my favorite tracks as is "Lady Love"(not the Lou Rawls song) with a great lead vocal by Billy Osborne. After this album Jeffrey and Billy Osborne left for solo careers as did long time producer Bobby Martin who left to become a Jehovah's Witness missionary, thus putting an end to this great marraige and L.T.D.'s classic run of hit albums. Although the rest of the album is pretty solid I really wish they could have went out with a bigger bang than this...but you know you can't get everything you want. Although they gained two new lead singers on the next album, things were never the same and the band disbanded two years later. So in conclusion I think this is a good album but could have been better. If you love L.T.D. this album is a keeper regardless and a great purchase because of the bargain price.

5 out of 5 stars Just surperb.......2006-03-02

One of L.T.D's best. If you are a L.T.D or a Jeffery Osborne fan, this CD is a "must have" addition to your collection. A steal at this price.

3 out of 5 stars Typical LTD.......2005-12-12

I like this CD for the same reasons Mr. Grindle dislikes it - the ballads. Apart from "Back in Love Again", LTD's uptempo songs could have been canned. I'm an avid fan of LTD for such songs as "Concentrate on You", "Love Ballad", "We Both Deserve Each Other's Love" and "(Won't Cha) Stay With Me". Shine On was an album with which I waited patiently to be reissued on CD. Jeffrey Osborne's voice and phrasing are tailor-made for romantic ballads, and are wonderfully showcased on the little known song "Lovers Everywhere", featured on this CD. The ballads on this CD lends it its value. Also, I take issue with Mr. Grindle categorizing the ballads as pop as Osborne's style in delivering them is consistent with authentic soul tradition. For fans of LTD's romantic music, I strongly recommend Shine On as it offers some well-known tracks along with some lesser known gems.

4 out of 5 stars Osborne's Last.......2005-03-20

You know upon hearing it 'Shine On' has the same flaw as every LTD release it seems-too little funk and too much smarmy pop balladeering,and for lovers of the latter this album is FULL of that slow jam stuff.But up the tempo and this album COOKS!!!
"You Gave Me Love","Getaway" and the fabulous closer "Don't Cha Know" are all fabulous funk tunes with great songs attached too!But like alot of LTD they just don't sustain funkiness for a whole album.I think a 2 CD compilation of JUST their funk tunes is in order-just too many boring album tracks that are way overrated!

5 out of 5 stars Classic L.T.D........2000-10-27

This is truly L.T.D. at its best. My father purchased this albumn when I was about nine years old. I don't have a clue to where that albumn is now, but I still remember the songs. My favorites were "Where Did We Go Wrong" and "Lovers Everywhere." If you like L.T.D., you will definately love this C.D.!
