Tyrone Davis seems to have more than his share of hits compilations, both domestic through
Brunswick and imported courtesy of
Diablo, but the rejuvenated
20 Greatest Hits earns the recommendation because of its digital remastering job.
Davis' gritty yearning and the stylish, brassy productions of
Brunswick's
Willie Henderson and
Carl Davis sound better than ever on his biggest and best hits,
"Can I Change My Mind" (quickly followed by the nearly identical
"Is It Something You've Got") and
"Turn the Back Hands of Time." Though
20 Greatest Hits doesn't feature as expansive a track listing as
Diablo's
Turning Back the Hands of Time, the crisp sound and detailed liner notes make it an easy first pick for fans of
Davis' expressive uptown sound.
