Through the Eyes of Love-The Complete Arista 7" Singles (2-CD Set)

â€œPlease, donâ€™t let this feeling endâ€¦â€ The sentiment of that famous lyric is one shared by listeners every time Melissa Manchester begins to sing. From her earliest pop hits through her recent triumphs on the jazz charts, Manchesterâ€™s voice has always resonated with warmth and power. In 1975, she was one of a handful of select talents chosen by Clive Davis to inaugurate his Arista Records label, and during her near-decade on the label, the fiercely independent artist established herself as both a singer and songwriter. Inspired by the trailblazing Laura Nyro, the onetime student of Paul Simon scored a crossover smash with the beautifully intimate â€œMidnight Blue,â€ established such songs as â€œDonâ€™t Cry Out Loudâ€ and the Oscar-nominated â€œTheme from Ice Castles (Through the Eyes of Love)â€ as standards, and reinvented herself as a contemporary dance diva with the Grammy-winning â€œYou Should Hear How She Talks About You.â€ All of those songs and many moreâ€”including over fifteen chart hitsâ€”can be heard on Real Gone Music and Second Disc Recordsâ€™ Through the Eyes of Loveâ€”The Complete Arista 7â€ Singles Collection. This landmark release brings together every one of Manchesterâ€™s Arista 45 RPM releases, all in their original single versions featuring 23 unique single mixes/edits, for a total of 43 tracks on two discs. These timeless recordings fusing pop, rock, soul, R&B, new wave, dance, jazz, and plenty of heart have been newly remastered from the original tapes by Mike Piacentini at Sonyâ€™s Battery Studios, and present Melissaâ€™s hits on CD as they were first heard on the radio between 1975 and 1984. Through the Eyes of Love boasts several worldwide CD premieres such as the single version of â€œMy Boyfriendâ€™s Backâ€ (heard as part of a medley in its album version), and as a special bonus, the extended 12-inch mix of â€œYou Should Hear How She Talks About You;â€ Joe Marchese of The Second Disc provides new liner notes based on an exclusive interview with Melissa herself. Clocking in at 157 minutes, Through the Eyes of Love: The Complete Arista 7â€ Singles is the most comprehensive Melissa Manchester anthology ever, and reveals just why she became the cherished voice of a generation.
