ReviewsIncluded in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums of the 1990s.", 9 (out of 10) - "...bedtime sophisto-soul....George, for all the angst he so brazenly wears on his sleeve, remains the embodiment of suburban wish-fufilment. Times may have changed...but the music still fits the mood like a glove...", 3 Stars - Good - "...hasn't lost his talent for writing pop songs as contagious as the Ebola virus....From the smooth, moody groove of 'It Doesn't Really Matter' to the bouncy disco concoction 'Fastlove'..., Michael proves his guilty feet still have rhythm.", "Arriving at a moment when his worldwide stardom was in eclipse, this 1996 album was the most daringly personal statement of George Michael’s career.", "...Michael may have had more birthdays, but in content and style, his music is similar to the rhythm-and-bluesy stuff he's done since breaking off from Wham! in 1986....Older is better.", "...as unremittingly slow, solemn and sombre as side two of Joy Division's CLOSER....snazzily produced late-night smoochathons that'll provide horny shop assistants and bank clerks with shag material for months....", "...OLDER is elegiac, heartfelt, life-affirming, and appears to be as elegant a coming-out as a public figure has ever accomplished....Hip-swaying beat-box percussion bops around background strings and other sampled orchestral colourings..."

George Michael Older CD Review
One of my all-time favourite albums of George Michael. Beginning with the classic hit Jesus to a Chlld. The songs just get better and better. George was such an accomplished songwriter. That, accompanied by his wonderful voice makes this a very special album in my collection. The world has lost a great talent and I'm so glad we can still hear his music in this way The condition of the CD from Music Magpie was very good. I have used them in the past and can highly recommend them

Aptly titled.
George Michael in philosophical mood. Nothing too Wham here. A nice blend of cool tunes and some moving balads make for a very listenable album, one that can be listened to time and again without tiring of it. I am sure glad I bought it. I bought it as a sort of homage to George. He was class as a performer.
