For Michael Bolton, 1991 proved to be a very exciting year for him. He had already proven himself with his Soul Provider tour, and now he was going to do it all over again. It is just kind of sad that the critics were giving him the gong, like the judges on The Gong Show. However, that kind of music is actually very good to hear, then Britney Spears and her raunchy appeal anyday. Time, Love & Tenderness, proved to be Michael Bolton´s most successful record, selling over 6 million copies. The album has some of the most fierce songs of his career, including Time, Love & Tenderness, Missing You Now, and We´re Not ****** **** Anymore, a underrated duet with Patti LaBelle. Unfortunately, a lot of stores stopped carrying the record for one simple reason. The song, Love Is A Wonderful Thing, sampled a song written by The Isley Brothers. At the time, sampling was notorious in the industry, with Vanilla Ice, and M.C. Hammer, scoring hits that were sampled by other artists. Unfortunately, The Isley Brothers sued Michael Bolton, and won their case. As a result, Time, Love & Tenderness is no longer being sold anywhere. It is kind of sad that people still don´t show that respect to Michael Bolton in the music industry anymore, people would just rather see Britney Spears on the cover of Playboy anyday. However, if you are a true Michael Bolton fan, then this album is a must have for all those tough times. If not, then it´ll be a great introduction to his soulful style.
