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.

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

5 stars Minnie Is A Perfect Angel!!!
Minnie Riperton is a perfect angel. Her voice is so peaceful and cool. Perfect music for any person who loves soulful music at any time of the day. Music that takes your blues away.

5 stars Love Lives Forever...
Awesome retrospective of our beloved and departed "sweet and soulful songbird's Epic & Capitol select (and greatest) musical moments, indeed! Now if the record companies would only release each individual album in CD format domestically, we'd be all very happy now, wouldn't we? Hint. Hint. Minnie will always be a perfect angel.

1 star stupendous voice poor material
Apart fom the main hit and maybe one or two that could appeal, the dated material lets down what would otherwise be a treasure. Most of the numbers sound like the fillers from a stage musical (like when the heroine steps to stage front to enable set change)and the write-ups of Minnie as soul/R & B style are definately not represented here. Sadly even the inclusion of "light my fire" is a real disapointment.Stupendous artist, badly presented.

Demolition, Girlschool's 1980 Bronze Records debut, as well as Hit & Run, its 1981 Stiff follow-up, were reissued as one in May 2004 via the import-only Japanese Victor Co.. ~ Johnny Loftus While Philadephia's Delfonics have had their share of collections and best-ofs, all of them have been left wanting for the exclusion of a key B-side, a necessary if little known album track, or even an excluded A-side that helped write their story. This Belgian collection of 20 tracks from virtually every period of the band's successful years mends that hole in the fence. Budget priced -- perhaps because of the lack of detailed discographical information (there are no chart placements, session details, or even source tags) -- it nonetheless collects virtually every single important track by the trio of William Hart, Wilbert Hart, and Randy Cain. And it does so, as the label name suggests, in audiophile sound on a gold disc no less! It also documents, however unintentionally, ...
