Jerry Butler - Whats The Use Of Breaking Up A Brand New Me
Review by Tuah Ersada
Jerry Butler's album, "What's the Use of Breaking Up a Brand New Me," showcases his smooth and soulful vocals in a collection of tracks that are both nostalgic and timeless. The album's title track is a standout, with its catchy melody and heartfelt lyrics about moving on from a failed relationship. Butler's rendition of "Only the Strong Survive" is also a highlight, as he infuses the classic tune with his own unique style and emotion.
Throughout the album, Butler's voice is accompanied by lush orchestrations and arrangements that perfectly complement his smooth vocals. The result is a cohesive and polished collection of songs that will appeal to both longtime fans of the legendary singer and newcomers to his music.
