Nice Collection Of Her RCA Years.......2006-04-18

This is a nice collection featuring Evelyn's best from her days on RCA. Blessed with a powerful voice, Eveyln King was a child prodigy who sounded way beyond her years during the 1970s. I enjoyed all of the songs presented on this CD because they aren't edited to a short 7" mix (or 45 mix from back in the day!). I would pick this CD over the newer 'Greatest Hits' because that CD includes so many edits.

Also, fans can extend this CD by including Eveyln's 3 hits from her 1988 EMI/Manhattan debut 'Flirt'...1. 'Flirt', 2. 'Hold On To What You Got', and the awesome ballad, 3. 'Kisses Don't Lie'. There's enough space on a CD to include these 3 songs, but the 'Flirt' CD is becoming harder to locate as the years go by.
Peace, SD

EVELYN KING=Great Dance Music!.......2003-04-20

When she came on the scene as a teenager (legend has it that an executive at RCA, her early label, heard her singing while cleaning bathrooms, then signed her) she was Evelyn "Champagne" King. At the very height of her popularity she dropped the "Champagne" from her name for the albums "I'm In Love" ('81) & "Get "Loose" ('82) . This was a wise, mature decision. For some strange reason (which never made any sense to me) when she released her "Face To Face" album in '83, the "Champagne" was back in her name. Seemed like she was going backwards instead of forward because the album was somewhat juvenile & didn't show much progress on her part. The songs "Action", "Shake Down", & "Teenager" are from "Face To Face". This "Best Of" cd totally ignores songs from her "Sweet Delight" album from 1980. It would have been great if they included "Sweet Delight" & "Just A Little Bit Of Love" instead of three lackluster tunes from "Face To Face". Other notable King tunes missing are "Spirit Of The Dancer", the ballad "Till Midnight", the 60's sounding "I'm So Romantic", the singles "Let's Get Funky Tonight" & "Give It Up" (from the '85 soundtrack "Fright Night"). All in all, Evelyn put out some great songs in the late 70's & 80's. Her rival for similar music was Melba Moore on Capital Records. I recommend this cd if you like funky "old school" R&B/dance music.

before britney there was evelyn.......2002-12-05

evelyn champagne king was another of those divas who went unrecognized when their time in the spotlight was up shame is a timeless classic covered by zhane and the rest of her stuff like love come down seems like britney and n sync's producer took notes cause this is where they got their so called funk from.
