Barry Manilow - Manilow - 1985 - RCA Records - Pop/Soft Rock - Vinyl LP/Record Album - Used

This 1985 self-titled release from legendary crooner Barry Manilow marks a vibrant shift in his musical journey, moving away from his signature piano-led ballads toward a slicker, synth-driven pop sound that perfectly captures the mid-80s aesthetic. Released by RCA Records, the album features standout tracks like the high-energy anthem I'm Your Man and the soulful power ballad Some Sweet Day, alongside a unique duet with Muffy Hendrix on Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing. Fans of the era will appreciate the production work of industry heavyweights like George Duke and Bob Gaudio, who helped craft this uptempo collection that also includes Sweet Heaven (I'm in Love Again) from the Copacabana movie. As a classic 12-inch 33 RPM LP, this record serves as an essential bridge between Manilow’s traditional adult contemporary roots and the modern pop experimentation of the decade, making it a must-have for any collector looking to round out their 1980s vocal pop library.

♼ - By purchasing this album, you’re helping to keep music out of the landfills and onto the turntables. Music deserves to be played, not discarded. I greatly appreciate you helping me keep the analog spirit alive.

♡ - Because this is a pre-loved item, you may notice minor wear. I personally think that adds to the charm and nostalgia.
