Eurythmics Be Yourself Tonight
Eurythmics: Annie Lennox (vocals, keyboards); David A. Stewart (guitar, keyboards).
Additional personnel: Aretha Franklin (vocals); Mike Cambell (guitar); Michael Kamen (strings, celeste); Stevie Wonder (harmonica); Martin Dobson (saxophone); Dave Plews (trumpet); Benmont Tench (organ); Nathan East, Dean Garcia (bass); Olle Romo, Stan Lynch (drums); Elvis Costello, Angel Cross, The Charles Williams Singers (background vocals).
This album replays like a greatest hits package, such is the content of full-blown memorable pop songs. The list is almost endless as this album is a chilling reminder of how good pop can be and how well Lennox and Stewart worked together. Even without the legendary Aretha Franklin on "Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves" there is the pace and guts of "I Love You Like A Ball And Chain' or the numerous confessional "I'll be's" of "It's Alright (Baby's Coming Back)". This album stands up to repeated plays and will continue to improve with age. What perfection.
