All I Ever Need Is You is the fifth compilation album by American pop rock duo Sonny & Cher, released in 1990 by Universal/MCA Records.
The album has sold over 5.5 million copies worldwide. [2]
Album information
All I Ever Need Is You was released sixteen years after the 1974 Greatest Hits compilation. This was the first collection of Sonny & Cher's songs from their time with Kapp/MCA to be released on compact disc, and includes songs from All I Ever Need Is You, Mama Was a Rock and Roll Singer and their two live albums, Sonny & Cher Live and Live in Las Vegas Vol. 2.
The album includes two Bono solo tracks, the divorce song " You Better Sit Down Kids", "Crystal Clear, Muddy Waters", and four live tracks from the duo's early-1970s cabaret act. It also includes the ten-minute "Mama Was a Rock and Roll Singer Papa Used to Write All Her Songs" (this was the only CD appearance of the full-length version until the album with the same name was reissued in 2018).
The live tracks, "The Beat Goes On", "I Got You Babe", "United We Stand", and a Sonny-sung "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)", are in the Vegas style familiar to fans of the duo's variety show.
