Peabo Bryson
Fairfax, VA (BlackNews.com) - Peabo Bryson is recognized
as one of contemporary music's premier male vocalists and
legendary soul balladeer, with a career spanning nearly three
decades. His musical repertoire has earned many honors including
an Oscar, multiple Grammy awards and numerous Billboard top
listings. Time Life has created a special 16-song CD entitled
The Very Best of Peabo Bryson available on March 7
in retail stores nationwide.
Bryson' portfolio of greatest hits includes Tonight,
I Celebrate My Love, the ever-popular hit duet with R&B
legend Roberta Flack; Show and Tell; Let The Feeling
Flow; Can You Stop The Rain; Feel the Fire;
Closer Than Close; the Oscar and Grammy-winning A
Whole New World from Disney's hit movie Aladdin
recorded with Regina Belle; and the Grammy-winning Beauty
and the Beast recorded with Celine Dion.
His
unprecedented international success resulted in being
the first artist in music history to have separate records
topping four different charts in 1992: "A Whole New
World (Aladdin's Theme)", which topped both
the Pop and Adult Contemporary charts. During this time,
Peabo teamed up with Tony Winner Lea Salonga and recorded
the song "We Kiss In A Shadow" for the classical
musical The King and I, which was No.1 on the
Classical Crossover charts; while saxophonist Kenny
G's multi-platinum "Breathless" which also featured
Peabo on "By The Time This Night Is Over" topped
Contemporary Jazz charts.
"For
the first time in Bryson's career, his timeless music
is available on one CD for his loyal fans and music
enthusiasts to enjoy worldwide. The Very Best of
Peabo Bryson represents a blockbuster of greatest
hits. He is the undisputed master of romantic ballads.
As spokesperson for Classic Soul Ballads Collection
on television, Peabo was seen by more than 75 million
viewers and instrumental in the 3 million CDs sold,"
states Mike Jason, Senior Vice-President of Audio &
Video, Retail at Time Life.
Bryson demonstrates a passion for the music he writes
and produces which is evident in his live performance
and continued sold out concerts. "My primary objective
when writing a love ballad is to share what I would
like for others to feel through music. When I perform
Feel The Fire, Can You Stop The Rain,
A Whole New World, or my other favorites, I want
my audience to recognize that love is real," states
Bryson.
