Aaron Neville - Tell It Like It Is (Gold)
“Egg-shaped warbler Aaron Neville was a Next Big Thing back when there actually were Big Things. His first single was an instant classic, and while not an universally-recognizable megahit, it has only improved with age. Alas, the next two decades saw him fade into obscurity, never coming close to his earliest triumph. He hit rock-bottom in 1989, recording a ghastly duet with Linda Ronstadt for $50 and a free month’s gym membership. It went on, of course, to be an universally-recognizable megahit, final proof that there is no justice, only Linda Ronstadt.”
Every time I hear Aaron Neville, I think of Mr. Pablo Francisco.
