Wildest Dreams

Amazon.com
Wildest Dreams is John Berry's first album since 1996's Faces, which failed to go gold despite a No. 1 country single, "She's Taken a Shine." He's got a new label, Lyric Street, and a new producer, Mark Spiro, best known for his work with Lila McCann. Fortunately, Berry's soaring tenor voice is intact. Unfortunately, his choice of material still has more in common with Christopher Cross and Phil Collins (whose "You'll Be in My Heart" receives a typically schmaltzy cover here) than with anything identifiable as country music. A tender song like "Where Would I Be" would fit right in on soft-pop or contemporary-Christian radio. But the country single "Power Windows" attempts to dress up a hopelessly contrived lyric with weightless '70s rock guitars. --Rick Mitchell

Loved 'When She Calls Me Baby" by Rick Williamson.......2006-10-07

Change of pace, more ballards like "When She Calls Me Baby" please Kenny. Rick Williamson is the real deal, you brought it to life. Love it when you rock, but love songs like this should be #1 singles. Rerelease it so new fans can hear what you always can do with a great song like this.

Classic Country With A New Twist.......2006-07-23

I just picked up this Kenny cd and I was paranoid at first since originally it didn't sell well when he first released it years ago because it was his very first cd and nobody knew who he was. Well he has since re-released it and Im glad he has because it is wonderful!! The music reminds me of the older Country sound with a updated twist. Good foot kicking songs as well as a few slow songs...but Kenny's vocals are outstanding as they always are. Definatley reccomended for any good Country Fan or Kenny fan.

GREAT CD!!!.......2006-05-28

another exellent release from the master.......2007-05-10

A Superb release from sir Ken , the opening track enough to have u placing an order. Also happens to hold one of my favourite all time tracks "insatiable" which is not just a clever name ,you will have this on repeat for sure.

What A big heart!.......2006-02-09

I recommend this cd highly. I actually purchased it by mistake thinking I was buying the love coloured soul cd. I can say now I was quite pleased. Ken Has too many cd's for me to go back and purchase all of them. I am glad I stumbled on to this one.! I would have bought it just on the strength of A big Heart.That song touches my heart so much. It is trully a great smooth jazz selection. The flow of the music is real nice and it just shows how talented that Ken Navarro is. Watch him closely he is excellent.

Amazing Guitarist.......1999-06-16

It is rare for me to like every song on a CD but I LOVE every song on this CD! Navarro is an amazing guitarist who has a knack for coming up with super melodic improvisations, especially on the acoustic guitar. I going to to pick up more of his CDs.

Excellent contemporary jazz guitar CD.......1999-05-12

This CD is what smooth jazz should be - energetic and strong and all 10 songs are winners. Great performances from Navarro and also Eric Marienthal on sax and Gary Grainger on bass. I also really liked "Smooth Sensation" but I think this one is a notch better.

Whatever You Want .......2006-08-28

This was Tina's first album of new material in seven years, and it really stands out as a first-rate album. Just exactly why it really went nowhere is a complete mystery. Again overseas, it was huge, with many massive hits. Here in the States, it disappeared. One could blame her record company for not promoting it well, or radio for not playing it, I really don't know. I do know, however, that this is a great disc. Her cover of "Missing You" is incredible. She seems to spit out her scorn for who has done her wrong in the lyrics of this song, and makes it her own in the process. For sheer sexiness, "In Your Wildest Dreams" is SO awesome. The song also features the late, great Barry White in a co-lead singing spot, and it really works well. The rest of the album has a romantic, edgy feel that is so fresh for Tina, and it seems she had a ball doing it. The James Bond theme, "Goldeneye" is on this disc, and it actually fits in the scheme of the album surprisingly well, as most movie songs stand out like a sore thumb on albums not directly attached to a movie project. Overall, Ms. Turner is in fine form vocally, and the album has a great feel to it. It does stand as one of her best overall efforts, and is well worth getting.

The best post-"Private Dancer" Turner record? Darn straight!.......2005-12-02

Turner's discography has been held to the standard of the amazing 1984 comeback record "Private Dancer" since it's release. While efforts such as 1987's "Break Every Rule" & 1989's "Foreign Affair" came close, no gold in breaking the rule of "Private Dancer" being de-throned as Tina's best solo album.

Then, in 1996 "Wildest Dreams" came along. Now, while ironically this was Tina's most disappointing commercial record in the States, overseas this record would soar well beyond double-platinum status. With commericiality aside, "Wildest Dreams" to me ranks as Tina's finest record in her post-"Private Dancer" catalogue. It is uniform, cohesive, yet there are the elements of sass, romance, & Tina's soulful voice that make this record standout.

Clearly, living in Europe for over a decade had worn off on Tina. While she hinted at this on the look of the predecessor to this album, "Foreign Affair", with pictures of Tina in French cafe's & a such; the record was an American pop/rock record. Here, while you could at first say this a typical "American R&B" album, upon closer inspection, there is a loose, romantic European sheen woven throughout the whole album. It's mood is very European. From the vintage black & white cover with Tina wearing a short skirt & black jacket, to the fashionable approach the record takes.

This is due to the produers, some of Europe's finest, who helmed the project. From Nellee Hooper, the Pet Shop Boys, U2's Bono, all help "Wildest Dreams" shine.

The title track is a steamy duet with the late-Barry White, which has to be heard to really enjoy. The duet seems fresh, sensual, & over a cool ambitious melodic riff & creeping beat, sizzles. Other highlights include the theme to Bond film "Goldeneye" (one of my favorite Bond themes!) which finds Tina getting brassy, "Confidential" is simple Euro-pop at it's finest. This cut finds Tina just relaxed, giving a cool, almost detached delivery, until the chorus where the emotion of being involved with someone who won't be open with a relationship overtakes Tina.

Tina's vocals are in perfect shape as demonstrated on the soul workout of "Whatever You Want" & an awesome cover of 1980's pop staple "Missing You" which starts off quiet, then explodes with Tina's voice & the arrangement follows suit.

I had previously bought "Twenty Four Seven", this album's follow-up first, this record blows that out of the water. "Wildest Dreams" is Tina at her most soulful, sensual, & fun. Highly recommend to any music fan.

A Step Into The Modern Music Industry.......2005-03-07

"Wildest Dreams" in my opinion is the most amazing album of Tina Turner's history. The full powered and emotional "Missing You", her big hit off the album. "In Your Wildest Dreams" was definetly one of Tina's sexier songs on the album. A song she almost was embarresed to sing, but as her quote "I normally would of been embarresed to sing this song but I am doing it now because it is now". "Whatever You Want" starts out a sensous song but turns into an extreme racket, the music video for this song is the most incredible laser-effects that I have ever seen. "Do What You Do" was written by the same man who wrote Tina's smash hit "What's Love Got To Do With It". In an exclusive interview on the "Wildest Dreams Tour" DVD Tina tells us how this man always gets her to do these very different types of songs. "Thief Of Hearts" is just such a fun song that you could listen to and sing along to every single time that you heard it. "On Silent Wings" a very peaceful song from the different rackety songs before it. The song "Something Beutiful Remains is the song that Tina did not want to do that much at all, but however the song was actually part of the 12:00 minute "Dancing In My Dreams". "Confidential" was a very quiet song. "All Kinds Of People" was sung with Sheryll Crow (I beleive) as a backup singer, because Tina says that Sheryll still has that little innocent voice (this was in '96, now she is definetly no little innocent voice). Tina looked at her upcoming album that was going to be released and took that song off of it because she believed that an older person should be singing it. "Unfinished Sympathy" is definetly one of the absolute best song on the album and probably the easiest to remeber lyrics to. The song was mainly 2 verses with the first 2 lines being something different on each verse going straight into "You really hurt me baby, you really cut me baby". And then the "soul without a mind" part. I don't know if the whole pleasure of the song is its simplicity. "Goldeneye" is what began the production of this whole album, Tina was chosen to do the theme of the James Bond movie "Goldeneye" and was absolutley perfect doing it. It also is an amzing act in the "Wildest Dreams Tour, Live In Amsterdam" DVD. "Dancing In My Dreams" was about a black and white relationship. A very slow song.l The true ending to this album is a extended remix of "Something Beutiful Remains" This album is simply the one and only best!!

Tina still sounded good on this album!.......2004-10-25

Wildest Dreams has to be one of her best post-Private Dancer era albums. The album does have a pop/ Euro dance feel to it on most songs. But Tina really pulls it off on here! I still like the sexy Wildest Dreams with Barry White. Whatever You Want sounds good. Her remake of John Waite's Missing YOu is nice. I like the techno-dance Thief of Hearts. One of the surprises here is Silent Wings with Sting---both singers sound fabulous here. And Tina still continues to do some great songs with longtime songwriters/producers Terry Britten and Graham Lyle, people behind her '84 comeback, What's Love Got To Do WIth It?Tina just sounds fabulous through 63 minutes of this album! Oprah Winfrey just used one of her song titles as a theme for her current season, Wildest Dreams come true. She still has that song playing in the background on some of her shows, so 8 years since its 1996 release, it's still a well remembered song from that album. It makes this album have a much stronger and sturdier life span just like Private Dancer did in the '80s. Some of Tina's best music in her career!

An Excellent Album From The Rock Legend!.......2003-07-18

In the 1980's, the now legendary success story of Tina Turner made her one of the biggest female recording artists ever. Her days of loneliness with Ike were over, and she now back on track, with multi-million selling albums such as "Private Dancer," "Break Every Rule" and "Foreign Affair." A greatest hits collection, "Simply The Best" followed in 1991, with the soundtrack to the autobiographical movie on Tina's troubled life, "What's Love Got To Do With It?"

Fans were left eagerly awaiting Tina's latest release - her first album of brand new songs in seven years. It arrived in September 1996, and was called "Wildest Dreams." The album has experienced moderate success in America, but big sales have been achieved in Europe where Tina is by far at her most famous. The album produced many Top 10 hits and further proved that - now in her 60's - Tina Turner is still a rock legend and a true force to be reckoned with.

Wildest Dreams opens with the fantastic song "Missing You." This cover-version is absolutely fantastic, and Tina's vocals are very impressive. Heavy guitars and drums are added to awesome effect and violin strikes towards the end are particularly enjoyable. A fantastic Tina classic. "In My Wildest Dreams" is another highlight. There is only one word to describe this song - sexy! Tina's vocals are gravely and husky in such a mysterious tone, and the beat is deep and moody. The lyrics are equally intense, and a vocal guest appearance from Antonio Banderas spices things up even further. With "Whatever You Want," Tina goes back to her hardcore rock roots by pumping out this absolutely amazing power ballad and sings to her lover, telling him that whatever he wants, he can have. "Do What You Do" is a pure pop dance number. An infectious beat dominates the song, and Tina's incredible vocals twist around the arrangement perfectly.

"Thief Of Hearts" is a brilliant dance number in which Tina hits the disco floor and belts out a fantastic song about loving guys, giving them what they want, and running away while stealing their hearts. "On Silent Wings" is a wonderful mid-tempo ballad which will relax any listener. Tina's vocals are once more on top form, and the beat is very open and beautiful. You can imagine Tina stood on a mountain top singing this song, because it has such an excellent melody. "Something Beautiful Remains" is an average song on this album. It's not the best song, but it's good enough with some great lyrics and a mysterious beat. "Confidential" is another highlight. Penned by the Pet Shop Boys, the song is about Tina telling her lover that she can keep anything confidential if he indeed confides in her. The melody is relaxing and tranquil, and Tina's voice is smooth and silky.

"The Difference Between Us" is not featured on my version of this album, so I cannot comment on it. "All Kinds Of People" is a wonderful mid-tempo song about the various races in the world, and how everyone is equal. A real quality power anthem. Tina's cover-version of Massive Attack's "Unfinished Sympathy" isn't as good as the original version, but it's a worthy effort. "Goldeneye," the theme from the James Bond film of the same name, is another album highlight. Tina's trademark husky vocals make this song sizzle, and the traditional strings of a Bond theme are also present. "Dancing In My Dreams" is an excellent ballad in which Tina sings about dancing in her dreams. There isn't much of a beat, but the drums make for a heavenly kind of image in the brain.

OVERALL GRADE: 9/10

Wildest Dreams is not Tina Turner's best album, but it does come very close to being so. It seems that at present, Tina Turner is taking a well-deserved break after a hectic 40 years in the music business. The woman deserves all her success and the fact that her record sales are fast approaching 100 million is something to be very proud of. Wildest Dreams is the kind of album that you can put on to chill out or relax to. It's definitely not a party album, but it's not meant to be. Buy it now and experience this legend.

Stripped down Saga.......2005-01-29

Back in '87, I caught 'Only Time Will Tell' on the radio and went out to pick up Wildest Dreams (on vinyl) and really enjoyed it on the first listen. No mean feat as it usually takes a few listens for me to warm up to new material.
Keith Olson, as the producer, allowed the instruments to breathe to give this cd a very lush and warm sounding recording.
Wildest Dreams finds a change in the Saga lineup as Jim Gilmour and Steve Negus are absent. Curt Cress picks up admirably from Steve and provides a break from Steve's hi-hat intensive drumming style. Jim Crichton's nice bass grooves drive a lot of the songs not to be outdone by his brother's amazing and underrated guitar work. The keyboard and vocal work is up to Saga's normal standards - great.
I find the fourth and eighth tracks are the weakest but that is just in comparison to the other strong tracks on the cd.
If you are thinking of starting to pick up Saga material, start with Worlds Apart, Silent Night or Heads or Tails (with apologies to the Behaviour fans - I have yet to pick this up). Definitely, put this cd on your next to-do list.

Your Wildest Dreams.......2003-09-15

This is a great CD. Not a bad song in the lot. Years later I listen to it regularly. Great songwriting and even better playing and singing. If you're disappointed in this, go back to playing with blocks in the sandbox....

Very Good.......2002-12-07

This is some of guitarest Ian Crichton's finest work. Excellently produced by Keith Olsen. Maybe a little mainsteam, but the Full Digital Recording makes this CD sound perfect. A must have for guitar buffs. Great Riffs!

Three good songs on it..rest medicore.......2002-07-29

This cd has three good songs on it which are the first three tracks..especially don't put out the fire and only time will tell. The rest of the cd is pretty medicore..way too watered down..trying to be comercial in the worst way.

Refreshingly Mature Masterpiece of the 80's.......2002-03-27

Sure it's not one of Saga's progressive masterpieces, but I think people who bash this record fail to see in what circumstances it was recorded and why. Wow, I thought Saga fans were smarter than that. They're basically destroying what they don't understand. Oh well, allow me to enlighten you w/ some objectivity by taking this album aside from the others and having a look at it for what it is- a great record!
This was digitally recorded in the 80's-which was a time that was not very accepting/forgiving of 70's acts. Saga, always being on the edge of technology and slightly tweaking their sound occasionally to fit the times w/out selling out, went a little commercial, but not as badly as other reviews of this record state. Isn't Saga allowed to try something different?
Wildest Dreams is a pleasant, tasteful and at times, poppy record. A great follow-up to the frighteningly excellent 'Behaviour.' To say this is a sell out makes it sound like Bon Jovi or Poison kiddie nonsense. At times this is almost like Roxy Music- mature and sophisticated.
"Only Time Will Tell" is a gem. "Chase the Wind," "We've Been Here Before" and "Angel" are brilliant and deserve to be heard. I won't get into the other songs, I've stated my case for Saga here, it's just sad to see a great band get raked over the coals for trying something contemporary for those times and which sounds refreshing during the death knell of rock music. At least Saga got theirs before MTV killed integrity.
Wildest Dreams is also a great 'chick' record for those times when you want some energy on the stereo w/out being told to turn it down. Oh yeah, The Stones were smart to release the same 'safe' record for 40 years, no bad reviews-(see 3rd sentence).

Smashing Album.......2005-11-11

Any album that gives us Jason Graae singing "Smashing, New York Times" is worth having.

Great singers, not so great music.......2001-12-26

I love hearing songs from forgotten and lost musicals, and I enjoyed Unsung Musicals I, but I was disappointed with this one. "Lawyers" is easily the best song on the CD. Most of the other songs are ballads, and dull ones at that. (Admittedly, I am not a big ballad fan.) Looks like Bruce Kimmel's song selection process kind of flattened out here. Why, for example, did they choose a ballad from Foxy, when by all accounts the songs originally sung by Bert Lahr in that show were a lot of fun? On the other hand, the singers are very respectable and always worth listening to. Glory Crampton definitely needs more leading roles! My advice is to listen to the song snippets first, to determine if these songs are your thing.

Once again, unsung perhaps, but often wonderful.......2001-02-15

This is the second fine CD in the series of three. These selections may be songs that are not well known from shows in the same category, but some of these are real gems, sung by fine show singers. My favorites are "Lawyers" (from A Broadway Musical), "Everything in the World" (The Yearling), "Smashing New York Times" (also A Broadway Musical), "Run Cinderella" (Foxy), and "Phantom of the Opera" (title song from the Rupert Holmes show). There was a third CD in this series. If its not longer available, they should reissue it. Its on a par with the other two in the series.

A Must-Have for Musical Fans.......2000-03-25

The Unsung Musicals albums are a treasure for those who are "mega-fans" of musical theatre. All the songs share the tragic fate of being in a musical that just never made it on the Great White Way.

Some of the songs are somewhat cloying, such as "One Promise Come True." However, there are also some real gems, such as "Lawyers," which has some clever rhymes and a catchy tune. You also get the added bonus of hearing some great singers perform such as Sally Mayes, Rebecca Luker and Davis Gaines.

Overall, this recording is great for both its entertainment and its historical value.

Wildest Dreams is John Berry's first album since 1996's Faces, which failed to go gold despite a No. 1 country single, "She's Taken a Shine." He's got a new label, Lyric Street, and a new producer, Mark Spiro, best known for his work with Lila McCann. Fortunately, Berry's soaring tenor voice is intact. Unfortunately, his choice of material still has more in common with Christopher Cross and Phil Collins (whose "You'll Be in My Heart" receives a typically schmaltzy cover here) than with anything identifiable as country music. A tender song like "Where Would I Be" would fit right in on soft-pop or contemporary-Christian radio. But the country single "Power Windows" attempts to dress up a hopelessly contrived lyric with weightless '70s rock guitars. --Rick Mitchell

Customer Reviews:

NOT WORTH THE WAIT!.......2000-05-27

I have been a fan of John Berry for years, before he was well known. His incredible tenor powered his first albums, 'John Berry', 'Saddle the Wind' (without a doubt, the very best) and 'Things are Not the Same'. These albums are superior because of their purity - mostly acoustic guitar, great piano, and John singing his heart out. 'Live My Dreams' on Saddle the Wind is the best song he's EVER done. 'Standing on the Edge' and 'Faces' are equally excellent, with John's fabulous voice the main focus. However, in Wildest Dreams his singing is second only to Mark 'bigmouth' Spiro. Mark and the overbearing background singers seem to be trying to drown him out, and in most tracks, succeed. John seems to be holding back; a real disappointment for us long-time fans. The only song that comes close to the 'old' John is Love is For Giving. Even that song has too much of the loud 'listen to me, not John' background singers. I'll keep playing all the albums before this one and hear the REAL John Berry at his finest. I just hope his next album is worthy of his talent.

Wildest Dreams by John Berry.......2000-03-10

I was a little hesitant to purchase this CD after being disappointed with the Faces Album. The Wildest Dreams CD is great to listen to. It is a lot of the John Berry I so love to listen too! What a great voice!

A Nice Change of Pace for Mr. Berry.......2000-02-06

Blessed with one of country's best male voices, John delivers a powerful and diverse collection with "Wildest Dreams." Some of his diehard "country" fans may be disappointed with some of his material, but it's a great set, highlighted by his version of "You're the Voice." Nice to see John try and become a little more diverse in his material!

Devoted John Berry fan.......2000-01-07

I have been a devoted John Berry fan for many years and was looking forward to a new release from him. Imagine my dissapointement when I heard Wildest Dreams. He seems to be holding back and we hear too much Mark Spiro. Is this a duet CD? I guess Standing On The Edge and Faces spoiled me.

An Excellent CD!.......1999-12-18

I love the song Power Windows and the CD is just his best yet! I love it!

Best album.......2003-11-06

This is Kenny's best album to date. It shows what he was capable of before Nashville ruined him forever. Even if you are not a fan (I am no longer) search this cd out and give it a listen. It is Kenny unfiltered. I got this when it first came out, but have acquired and resold two copies of this by keeping an eye out at area pawn shops.
