Album Review
A radical departure from the type of slick pop/rock she'd been embracing on albums like Tropico and Wide Awake in Dreamland, True Love found Pat Benatar embracing blues and early pre-rock R&B. Opting for less production and a much rawer approach, an inspired Benatar ditches the synthesizers and keyboards and sounds like she's leading a bar band in a Chicago dive. From Albert King's "I Get Evil" to B.B. King's "Payin' the Cost to Be the Boss" to Charles Brown's "Please Come Home for Christmas," the results aren't breathtaking, but are generally honest and soulful. Quite clearly, this was an album Benatar was eager to make.
Customer Reviews
Very soulful!
I was surpised when this album was first released.
I didn't know what to make of it on the first listen.
By the second listen I was in love.
With songs like "Payin' the cost to be the boss" it's like
listening in on a fun private jam session with Pat Benatar havin' a blast.
While "Evening" is just beautiful!
This album got me into old school R&B and I haven't looked back since.
Great memories!
It's kinda strange that I remember this release very well...I was working as a music store manager at the time for a major music chain in Houston and new release Tuesday was a great time every week, mostly because we got to listen to everything...this cd was the one I played first thing in the morning for a few weeks before opening the store for business. It wasn't the hit I thought it was gonna be...but the memories of the years I worked there have this cd as a big part of my soundtrack during that time in my life. If you haven't experienced it ever -- give a couple of songs a little listen. I think you might be surprised. Good stuff. Pat rocks!
Great Stuff
This is an outstanding album. I think this is her best work.
