Walrus of Love

Product Information

In the 1990s, White established himself as a pop culture icon. In 1991, he hit number two in the r&b charts with Put Me In Your Mix. The following year, he duetted with the British pop singer Lisa Stansfield on All Around The World, and her championing of his cause smoothed his successful return to Britain. This first solo album, I've Got So Much to Give (1973), was a huge success and White began a run of multi-million-selling albums and singles. By 1974, he had become a worldwide phenomenon, topping the American charts with the lavishly produced instrumental "Love's Theme" by Love Unlimited Orchestra and as a solo artist with "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe" and reaching No 1 in Britain with "You're the First, the Last, My Everything".

In his infamous 1980 interview with Playboy and Yoko Ono, which was published in 1981, Lennon explained his thought process for the song in more depth. In addition to its musical merits, ' I've Got So Much to Give' also stands out for its production values and innovative arrangements. Blending elements of R&B, funk, and disco into a cohesive sound, White paved the way for countless artists in the years to come. Although ill with the chronic high blood pressure which would eventually result in kidney damage, he continued to bear his message of "loving, caring, sharing" on tours throughout the world. What set Barry White apart was his ability to craft lush, orchestral arrangements that complemented his voice perfectly. His music often featured sweeping strings, grooving basslines, and a distinct rhythm section, creating a signature sound that was instantly recognizable.

After four years he signed with A&M Records, and with the release of 1987's The Right Night & Barry White, the single entitled "Sho' You Right" made it to the Billboard R&B charts, peaking at No. 17. Lennon wrote the song to confound listeners who had been affording serious scholarly interpretations of the Beatles' lyrics. He was partly inspired by two LSD trips and Lewis Carroll's 1871 poem " The Walrus and the Carpenter". Producer George Martin arranged and added orchestral accompaniment that included violins, cellos, horns, and clarinet. The Mike Sammes Singers, a 16-voice choir of professional studio vocalists, also joined the recording, variously singing nonsense lines and shrill whooping noises. But listening to White’s 1970s recordings today, it’s clear he was unfairly characterized and artistically shortchanged. The essence of his appeal can be found on “Barry White: 20th Century Records Albums 1973-1979” (Mercury/UMe), a 9-CD box of his remastered solo recordings due out Oct. 26. His caressing, intimate vocal style pioneered romantic soul—an R&B genre that flowered between 1972 and rap’s arrival in 1980. White’s music also helped shape disco in the early 1970s, giving the emerging genre a more luxurious and symphonic feel.MacDonald, Ian (2005).
