Album Notes Digitally remastered by Wally Traugott. Although she only had one Top 40 hit, 1975's gorgeous "Lovin' You," Minnie Riperton was one of the most distinctive and exceptional singers of the '70s. This anthology, covering the solo albums Riperton recorded in the '70s as a protege of Stevie Wonder, collects most of her finest material. While most of Riperton's singles were lushly romantic ballads in the "Lovin' You" mold, she had a remarkably varied vocal and stylistic range-she had been the singer in the pioneering psychedelic soul act the Rotary Connection, after all-and other tracks here include the funkier "Can You Feel What I'm Saying" and the sassy "Young Willing and Able." Other highlights include sublime interpretations of Wonder's "Perfect Angel" and Joni Mitchell's "Woman of Heart and Mind." Riperton's early death, in 1979 at the age of 31, was one of the '70s' most tragic musical losses. | Find errors in the product description? Submit a catalog update request now. | ||||||||||||||
Reviews CD was in execellent condition, arrive in avery timely matter.Will recommend this seller to anyone, nice job keep up the great job. Review ID: 10000000007921686 Was this review helpful? Report this review One of my best forgotten albums come to life in CD form. Simply had to have it after seeing old videos of her and listening to real meaningful music. Instead of listening to the gender bashing, gang banging, drink and drug loving music frequently heard it's nice to relax to. Review ID: 10000000006503030 Was this review helpful?
