Gino Vannelli - Albums Collection 1974-1987 (7CD) Non-Remastered Releases

Gino Vannelli (born June 16, 1952) is a Canadian virtuoso pop/rock vocalist, singer and songwriter who had several hit songs in the 1970s and 1980s. His best-known singles included "I Just Wanna Stop" (1978) and "Living Inside Myself" (1981). Collection includes: Powerful People (1974); Storm At Sunup (1975); The Gist Of The Gemini (1976); A Pauper In Paradise (1977); Brother To Brother (1978); Nightwalker (1981); Big Dreamers Never Sleep (1987).

Ranging from soul to soft rock, singer and songwriter Gino Vannelli had several hits during the 1970s, including "People Gotta Move" and "I Just Wanna Stop." Vannelli learned to play the drums early in life and studied music theory at McGill University. He formed an R&B band with two brothers, but later began recording solo material for RCA in 1970. He became popular four years later when A&M released his hit single "People Gotta Move," from the Powerful People album (retitled People Gotta Move). Many albums followed, including Storm at Sunup (1975), Gist of the Gemini (1976), A Pauper in Paradise (1977), Brother to Brother (1978), Nightwalker (1981), Black Cars (1985), Big Dreamers Never Sleep (1987), Inconsolable Man (1990), and Live in Montreal (1992). After a lengthy absence from the recording studio, Vannelli returned in 1995 with Yonder Tree; Slow Love followed three years later. After yet another lengthy absence from the studio, Gino recorded the ambitious Canto in 2003 and 2006's These Are the Days, which featured remastered recordings of some of his best-known work alongside seven new compositions. A Good Thing, featuring a CD and accompanying book of poetry, was issued in early 2009, followed by another CD/book package, Stardust in the Sand, later that same year. After a decade-long hiatus, Vannelli returned in 2019 with Wilderness Road.

Review by Mark Allan, Allmusic.com

The music and singing are pleasant enough on this Montrealer's second outing. He avoids embarrassments like "Mama Coco" from the following year's Storm at Sunup, but lyrics are not his strong point. This release includes two of his stronger tunes in "People Gotta Move" and the title track. His heart is in the right place, as in a tribute to Jim Croce. Still, Vannelli should have left social commentary to others, or joined forces with a better lyricist.

Back cover & CD

Review by Jason Elias, Allmusic.com

In the mid-'70s, Vannelli automatically got to the forefront of R&B due to his soulful vocals and the melodic musical arrangements. The only problem with work of Vannelli is that it often veered from the ridiculous to the sublime with absolutely no middle ground. On the bright side, whenever his lyrics hit the right note they were matched by his near-operatic vocals. 1975's Storm at Sunup, his third A&M effort, offers a lot of instances on the yin and yang. The atmospheric "Love Me Now" perfectly captures Vannelli as one of the more wishy-washy and self-absorbed singers as he croons "take me as I am/the storm in your life." The album's best song, "Keep on Walking" beautifully captures a sense of bleak romanticism as Vannelli turns in a mesmerizing vocal. The ARP heavy sound that typified his early work shows up on "Love Is a Night," and it has some tricky chord changes as he recounts his conquests. The clumsy lyrics of "Mama Coco" and "Gettin' High" are so bad they are nearly embarrassments. While those songs are odd, the best of Storm at Sunup certainly captures Vannelli's classic mid-'70s sound.

Back cover & CD

Review by Peter Kurtz, Allmusic.com

Romantic progressive pop with layered piano and synthesizer atop outrageously pretentious lyrics about love and war. Those who can get past lines like "A post-war eunuch/A lover that is lame" will find some relaxed, smoky melodies here, especially the closer "Summers of My Life." "Fly into This Night" was a minor FM hit that lands a hefty keyboard punch courtesy of his brother, Joe Vannelli. Instrumentally, this is perhaps Vannelli's best effort. The lyrics are quite amusing, though that might not have been his intention.

Back cover & CD

Review by Louie Bourland

Gino Vannelli's musical creativity reached a high point in 1977 with the release of his fifth album "A Pauper In Paradise". Like his previous album, "Gist of The Gemini", "Pauper.." is high on dynamic musical arrangements and showcases Vannelli's vocals at their very best.

The opening track "Mardi Gras", is a jolly slow shuffle with some excellent jazzy arrangements. This is a fun piece which will have you smiling in no time.

Tracks such as "Valleys of Valhalla" and "A Song and Dance" are in the light-pop genre while the album's hit "One Night With You" has a faint touch of disco.

"The Surest Things Can Change" is a gentle ballad perfect for late-night slow dancing with that special someone.

The main highlights of this album are represented in its second half. Both "Black and Blue" and the four-movement title track were recorded at the famous Abbey Road Studios in London with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. The end results are beyond belief. "Black and Blue" displays Vannelli's dynamic vocals in full range as the orchestra provides a beautiful lush backup behind him.

The album's epic title track is very much in the same vein as The Moody Blues' "Days of Future Passed" in that it features extended orchestral passages with embelishments from Gino's backup band (consisting of three keyboarists including brother Joe Vannelli plus a drummer and two percussionists). This piece is not rock nor is it commercial pop. The majority of this piece is definitely programmatic classical music (ie: classical music with an overall story and concept). It is only during the third movement that the orchestra is not center of attention. Here, Gino's band lets loose with a progressive rock/jazz fusion hybrid loaded with busy percussion patterns and skittering keyboard passages. This piece as whole demonstrates Gino Vannelli's great strength as a composer and not just a vocalist as the majority of it is instrumental with only a few vocal lines at the very end of the last movement.

"A Pauper In Paradise" is definitely one of Gino Vannelli's finest albums and makes for a perfect match alongside "The Gist Of The Gemini". Although I did not hear this album when it was first released in 1977, I must say that in 2003, "A Pauper In Paradise" sounds like a brand new album. It offers something fresh and exciting from this brilliant vocalist and composer.

Back cover & CD

Review by Jason Elias, Allmusic.com

By this point, Vannelli has pared away the often-bizarre edges of his sound and became more mainstream. That's not a bad thing. This album's predecessor, A Pauper in Paradise, seemed to blow up his pretensions to skyscraper size with only the melodic and gorgeous "The Surest Things Can Change" coming out unscathed. The good news is that Brother to Brother seems to pick up from that point. The big hit here, the sexy and confident "I Just Want to Stop," gets a great vocal from Vannelli and the backing vocalists. Throughout, this one gets the sense that Vannelli finally got what made him special vocally and lyrically. "Love and Emotion" and "Feel Like Flying" have a maturity that he couldn't have pulled off two albums before. That is also true of the pensive "Wheels of Life," a song that's so melodically rich and thought-provoking, it's surprising that Peabo Bryson didn't cover it on one of his albums. Gino Vannelli's often more personal than more artists, and the final track proves it. The sleek and well-arranged "People I Belong To" has Vannelli examining the lives of his parents and brothers in a way that can't help but be affecting. After a few years of successful albums for A&M, Brother to Brother coalesced the sound and is recommended to fans of pop and R&B.

Review by Jason Elias, Allmusic.com

Gino Vannelli is one of the few artists to effortlessly navigate between pop and R&B. With the songs "Walking," "The Surest Things Can Change," and his 1978 classic "I Just Wanna Stop," Vannelli's work is always filled with both skill and passion. After six successful years at A&M he signed with Arista in 1981. Nightwalker is his label debut. During the three years between albums, not only did pop music come into vogue again, but he grew as a writer and singer. This album reflects the change. The dramatic title track has him singing overripe lyrics like "I can't live in this world without love, without you." The powerful "Put the Weight on My Shoulders" has him doing some good vocal riffs. Although most of his albums took a tumble when he decided to pick the pace, Nightwalker is actually better for its faster tracks. "Stay With Me" has him singing the horrible come on, "The only crime I see/is killing time with me." The searing guitars and Vannelli's sense of fun makes up for it. The album's biggest hit, "Living Inside Myself," with its haunting electric piano and Vannelli's phrasing, is compelling drama yet not overdone. The last track is another expert ballad. "Sally (She Says the Sweetest Things)" has a strong chorus that he nailed every time out. Nightwalker, co-produced by Vannelli and his brothers Joe Vannelli and Ross Vannelli, is one of his best and most accessible efforts.

Review by Andre S. Grindle, Amazon.com

Upon listening to Gino's 1985 release Black Cars it might've seemed that the man had lost a good portion of muse, emphasizing style to a greater degree over substance musically. It's important to know that the 1980's were a heavy, soul searching time for Mr.Vannelli and there were a lot of creative transitions along the way. This album represents that in many important ways. Produced and written in collaboration with his two brothers Ross and Joe,the latter of whom has been part of his music from the outset this album in many ways is the superior of the previous album in the way that Gino's vocals,whilst still obedient to the slicker 80's style vocals have more of their cutomary power and depth and the lyrical and melodic focus of the music is a good deal broader. One can see here that he is still fighting with the side of himself that desired popular musical success and his far reaching artistic bent with which we all became aquianted in the 70's.

The final cut on this album actually focuses on that element of his fame and does so in a more funky way than Gino has ever done his the latter end of the previous decade;"King For A Day" (not the Steely Dan song obviously) has a strong techno jazz/funk element to it with it's clever use of sequencers and a stronger use of the jazz/classical Stevie Wonder-like unexpected chord changes that Gino made his name with during the salad years of his career. "In The Name Of Money" begins the album on a similar if somewhat more subdued note whereas the chillier tone of "Down With Love" and especially "Shape Like A Man" have a strong period Sting flavor to them both musically and vocally. Of course being a singer/songwriter of great cunning and versatility Gino also throws a good dose of the unexpected into this album,notably with it's best known hit "Wild Horses",a compelling fusing of a country/rock and jazz-pop style that sounds something like Joe Zawinul and Bruce Springsteen re-recording "I'm On Fire" together,if one can imagine such a thing. There's also "Persona Non Grata",a pointed tale of modern immigration problems set to a finely honed latin funk/rock/salsa type rhythm.

Much as it's important to note this is Gino Vannelli's final,and as it would up third actual release,of the 80's decade it's also important to note that in the decade following this album Gino would swiftly turn his back on pop music entirely and embrace jazz and different foreign language projects. Yes it all seemed like the typical "artist-tries-to-find-himself-by-embracing-something-preceived-to-be-exotic" type of creative mission I suppose but even with his work in the 70's one could tell Gino was a tremendous musical talent who even then seemed to be using the minimum of his skills in that regard. And to think of someone which such an ability diving headlong into embracing 80's pop may seem more than a little silly it was actually an important part of Gino using the medium of the decades popular music style to rediscover his creative muse that may have started to erode at the beginning of the decade.

Review by Tim Griggs, Allmusic.com

Gino Vannelli can usually be counted on to produce albums with excellent sound, tight musicianship, and most importantly, great pop songs. Unfortunately, the most important element is missing here. The songs aren't bad, but none seem to stick with listener after several plays. When Vannelli pulls it all together, it's magical; regrettably, there's no magic here.
