Customer Reviews:
SMOKIE / LAY BACK IN THE ARMS OF SOMEONE / NOT SMOKING.......2003-01-19
ALTHOUGH THIS CD HAS MANY GREAT SONGS THE VOCALS ON LAY BACK IN THE ARMS OF SOMEONE LACK THE QUALITY THAT MR. RALPH MORMAN / SAVOY BROWN DOES ON HIS VERSION. STILL A NICE PIECE TO ADD TO ONE'S COLLECTION. CHRIS NORMAN'S VOCALS ARE THAT OF THE GOOD, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THE VOCALS I TEND TO THINK THAT RALPH MORMAN / SAVOY BROWN IS IN THE CATAGORY OF THE EPITAMY OF VOCALS.
Great melodies.......2002-07-16
I have the personal impression: If one thinks of the second half of the Seventies, the German Charts and the most successful melodies. I think first of Abba, then Boney M. and then Smokie. The group had an enourmous success in Europe and today you will weep hearing those marvellous songs like "Changing all the time"
Great point! - Do we really know who Smokie was?.......1999-07-01
You shouldn't be old to remember Smokie and Chris Norman's voice! Unfortunately, that's the case in US. Not too many youngsters (I'm not sure too many older ones either) know or ever heard about Smokie the brits and not Smokey ... Robinson! And so, a strange, grave, mystic and still so attractive music is left back in the 70's, with those now women (then girls) screaming for a piece of Chris's hair! I believe someone should revive those sweet sounds in today's music stores. I bet a lot of people will be surprised by the freshness of the old wave... Living next door to Alice and Needles and Pins are just two of the songs many would cry after! Too bad here they are not even existing!
