Title: Natalie At Her Vocal Best--Peabo's OK, too.
Review: For me, Natalie Cole is one of the most under rated song writers ever. On "We're the Best of Friends" Miss Cole proves her vocal prowess and songwriting skills on tracks such as "Gimme Some Time" and the outstanding "Your Lonely Heart". She even yodels on "Your Lonely Heart" combining country, pop, and R&B in a seamless duet with Mr. Bryson. Natalie displays her top-notch vocal chops on the R&B classic "What You Won't Do For Love", the stand-out track on this album. Her voice swoops and swerves over a jazz influenced track, making her performance comparable with Barbra Streisand or jazz greats Sarah Vaughn or Ella Fitzgerald. All in all, "We're the Best of Friends" is a classic, mellow album with fine production and excellent vocal performances from Natalie Cole. Peabo's OK, too. I forgot to mention the excellent "Let's Fall in Love/ You Send Me."
