Negative Positive
Title: Vintage Ross
Review: It's been in the vaults since 1972: a year after the release of her Billie Holiday biopic Lady Sings the Blues, Ross went back into the studio to record additional songs for what in hindsight is essentially a crossover album. The results are admirable, and in one case--Little Girl Blue--more than that. In peak voice, the singer retains her inimitable fluidity and shows she's more than up to the challenge. Too bad Motown lost its nerve, opting to send Ms. Ross to Boss-land. Now the question is, are we ready to accept the queen of girl pop as a legitimate heir to Lena, Dinah and Billie?
