So friends the title: From Roberta Flack To Boy George: Last Fantastic Albums Ever Made. Why? Well, in 1969, when Roberta Flack's first album came out, First Take, it was not as well received by record buyers of the time, as The Beatles were still a rage, as well as the continuous British Invasion. But in fact, Miss Roberta Flack's first album, and later ones, have been so influential, there would be no overrated songs like Evergreen, Endless Love, and The Greatest Love Of All, which have become the standard for weddings. Even more to note, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face from First Take lifted off three years later as the #1 single of the year in 1972 in the USA. That was more of the proof that Roberta Flack's style was ahead of the times. Her soft, mellow voice would dominate the charts through out the 1970s, 80s, and 90s. As for Boy George, he made glamour rock the best example to the world. A drag queen singing blue-eyed soul was in itself the most unique aspect in the music business, not to mention that every song written by him and his group Culture Club were so positive in relation to love and peace, we could not have gotten more Christian then that. Yet, American radio seemed to forget that, as when the late 80's, 90's, and this decade turned up, it was like Boy George never existed. That even applies to Roberta Flack. Yet, friends, we all know what great music and albums were: From Roberta Flack To Boy George: Last Fantastic Albums Ever Made.
