Between 1984 to 1987 BW spent most of his Time Touring, after the Collapse of His Record Label "Unlimited Gold", He Finally Released his 16th Album on A&M Records in 1987.
It was Self-Produced and called "The Right Night and Barry White" but Critics said it would only Appeal to BW Fans,and this was Proved right when it only Charted in US R&B Chart @ Number 28, it never made the Pop 100 Chart!
It contained 10 Tracks, 1 Wrote by BW, 8 He Co-Wrote, and 1 Track wrote by Herman Hupfeld, Glodean White appeared on Backing Vocals again, while Nathan East Featured on Bass Guitar.
The Album Featured 2 Single Releases, His Biggest Hit (apart from one) in nearly 10 Years, "Sho You Right" Peaked at Nunber 17 in US R&B Chart (Number 14 in UK) and "For Your Love" which Charted @ Number 27 in R&B Chart!
By 1989 Barry White began the First Phase of his Comeback (to Success!), He Mixed a more Comtemporary Production Style with His Normal Trademark Sound, and the Result of this was the New Album, Entitled "The Man Is Back"
It was again Self-produced on A&M Records, it Peaked @ Number 22 in US R&B Charts, but as Previous Album, it failed to make the US Pop 100 Charts!
3 Singles were Released from the Album: US R&B Chart Placings in Brackets!
Super Lover (34)....I Wanna Do It Good to Ya... (26)....and When Will I See You Again (32)
1991 saw BW continue with Phase 2 of his Musical Change, with his New (18th) Album, entitled "Put Me In Your Mix" He added More Modern Instrumentation to His Usual Sounds, with Great Results, He had his Highest US R&B Chart Placing (Number 8), for Over 12 Years and He Finally made it back to the US Billboard Top 100 Pop Chart, @ Number 96!
The Critics said it was a Welcome Return to Form with some Great Ballads!
The 2 Singles Released were: "Put Me In Your Mix" a US R&B Hit @ Number 2 and the Duet with "Isaac Hayes" Charting @ Number 29, called "Dark and Lovely"
