L'intérêt de The Essential Barry Manilow est assurément de faire une bonne cure de pop marshmallow (marshmallow égale guimauve en anglais), violonades à go go, piano romantique ou poliment sautillant, c'est à une grande leçon de variété internationale pop que se livre Barry Manilow durant toute sa carrière.
The Essential Barry Manilow prend le parti d'un suivi chronologique de la discographie de Barry Manilow, ce qui n'est pas superflu vu l'amplitude de celle-ci. ses principaux tubes sont donc positionnés au début de la première face et tout un chacun s'aperçoit vite qu'il connaît par coeur, « Mandy », « I Write the Songs », « Could It Be Magic » qui fait toujours son effet avec son intro et son final tirés du « Prélude en C Mineur, Opus 28, Numéro 20 » de Frédéric Chopin, « Looks Like We Made It ».
L'intérêt va cependant vite en décroissant et e deuxième CD est pratiquement superflu si l'on n'est pas fan transi du gars de Brooklyn. Un « The Old Songs » retient bien l'attention, voire l'interprétation en public de « When October Goes », mais les reprises qui parsèment la seconde partie de carrière de Barry Manilow sont plutôt a éviter.
Dommage que cette compilation ne soit pas présentée en un seul CD, regroupant la crème de la crème, car deux CD de tubes de Barry Manilow c'est péché. De gourmandise évidemment.
