Robbie Robertson is the solo debut album by Canadian rock musician Robbie Robertson, released in 1987. Though Robertson has been a professional musician since the late 1950s, notably a founder of and primary songwriter for The Band, this was his first proper solo album. Robbie Robertson won the Juno Award for "Album of the Year", and producers Daniel Lanois and Robertson won the "Producer of the Year" Juno award, both in 1989 (there were no Juno Awards in 1988).

On the CD "Never Let Me Go" is a separate track, but it is track listed within the Medley. Matrix, Runout (Mirrored): 01-473598-10 11 A8 MASTERED BY DADC AUSTRIA.

His first solo album, Robbie Robertson, a brilliant, autobiographical work, should reestablish him as one of the preeminent rock & roll artists of his generation. The album, produced by Daniel Lanois (U2, Peter Gabriel) and Robertson, with contributions from Gabriel, U2, the BoDeans, former Band members Rick Danko and Garth Hudson and jazz arranger Gil Evans, is a lyrical and musical masterpiece. It’s really Robbie’s story, says Daniel Lanois. I would go for meetings with directors, and as I talked with them, I’d end up saying, ‘You know who you should get for this part? Get somebody who’s dying to do this. People would cut off their little finger to play this part. Robertson began preliminary work on the album in the fall of 1984, prior to signing with Geffen.

Never Let Me Go - Bb. Edujazz.

Never Let Me Go, like most Luther Vandross albums, is a flawless display of technique blessed with exquisite singing, well-crafted arrangements and a mix that has been tweaked to perfection. Unfortunately, the end result is more soporific than soulful - meaning that all Vandross ends up with is the quiet-storm equivalent of elevator music. It’s not as if he’s loafing, mind you. Some of what he does is amazing, like the shimmering vibrato that highlights the tag line in Hustle or the angelic ascent of the climax of Too Far Down
