Greatest Hits Vol. II (Barry Manilow album)
Greatest Hits Vol. II is the thirteenth album released by singer-songwriter Barry Manilow in 1983.[2] In Britain, Manilow's first Greatest Hits album had been issued as Manilow Magic, thus this second volume was issued there as A Touch More Magic. The album was mostly compilation, with the exception of three new tracks: "You're Looking Hot Tonight", "Put a Quarter in the Jukebox" and "Read 'Em and Weep" #1 A/C (for 6 weeks) and #18 in the United States, his last Top 40 on the Hot 100 to date, and also a cover of the Meat Loaf hit of the same name, albeit with an altered second verse and instrumental arrangement). The album reached platinum sales in 1993.[3] In 1989, Arista deleted this album, and its 1978 predecessor. However, Arista repackaged these two prior compilations into a series of three budget-oriented hits collections, released simultaneously: Greatest Hits, Volume I, with its tracklisting similar to Record One of the 1978 double album (with "Some Kind Of Friend" replacing "Ready To Take A Chance Again"; Greatest Hits, Volume II, which corresponds to Record Two of the 1978 double album, with a previously unreleased song, "You're My Only Girl (Jenny)", added, and Greatest Hits, Volume III, which features eight songs from this album. "You're Lookin' Hot Tonight" and "Put A Quarter In The Jukebox" are omitted but adds "Ready To Take A Chance Again" and the previously unreleased "Dirt Cheap". Track listingSource:[4]
