Barry Manilow - Here Comes the Night - 1982 - Arista - Pop/Soft Rock - Vinyl LP Record Album - Used

Released in late 1982, Here Comes the Night represents a sophisticated evolution in Barry Manilow's storied career, showcasing his dual mastery of soulful pop and classic balladry. This tenth studio album, published by Arista Records, features a diverse tracklist that highlights Manilow’s ability to bridge contemporary adult contemporary sounds with timeless standards. Listeners will find a stirring rendition of Memory from the musical Cats alongside the upbeat, infectious rhythm of Some Kind of Friend and the jazz-inflected charm of I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter.

Produced by Manilow himself, the record captures a polished, early-eighties aesthetic that remains a favorite for collectors of soft rock and easy listening. It remains a significant piece of pop history, having achieved Gold status and reaching the top ten on the UK charts under its international title. This specific pressing, identified by the Arista AL 9610 catalog number, serves as a quintessential example of the artist's peak production era, offering a rich listening experience that transitions seamlessly from danceable pop tracks to the powerful, emotionally resonant piano ballads for which he is world-renowned.
