Robert Palmer - The Very Best Of Robert Palmer ... May 2026

: Tracks like " Johnny and Mary " and " Looking for Clues " (from the critically acclaimed album Clues ) represent his dive into electro-pop and jittery New Wave rhythms.

: Early hits like " Every Kinda People " and " Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor) " showcase his foundation in rock and R&B, delivered with a "relaxed and deceptively lazy drawl" that critics noted was often underrated.

The Very Best of Robert Palmer serves as a definitive sonic portrait of an artist who was as much a musical chameleon as he was a fashion icon. Released in 1995 and reissued with additional tracks in 1997, this compilation highlights Robert Palmer's unique ability to blend blue-eyed soul, rock, funk, and even synth-pop into a polished, cohesive sound.
