Negative Positive
Title: Classic Miki
Review: Though this cd did not sell like her previous albums, it is pure perfection and magoc done in Miki's trademark style. Her voice has matured considerably while the music business transformed from classic soul to hip-hop, and therefore, this gem was overlooked. If the song "Nobody" had been released during her prime, it is no doubt that it would have headed towards the upper regions of the charts. In fact, there is not a single bad cut on the cd. "Kiss Of a Stranger" is a stand out with its jazz leanings. And the cd overall focuses on ballads which is where Ms. Howard excels. Finally free of what the studio executives have tried to mold her into for years, this is her best and finest work. It was also nominated in the Best Traditional R&B album losing to Glady Knight, another true soul singer.
Is the review positive or negative?
