Loving this disc. Been waiting for a new one. Had a crush on her ever since I saw the video for "like a feather". This disc has a cool soulf that goes from blues to rock to r and b soul very seamlessly. Tight bass grooves standouts include crybaby and love you less.

Sorry to the grammer police. Posting from my blackberry

I wonder if she is still doing the lowrider pants thing. That's the kind of crack I don't mind.

Lol. I haven't had a chance to check the liner notes. I wonder who all produced and played on it.

Here's a video of "Stuck to You" from the new album:

Looks like they used tape to get that dress stuck to her.

Her singing reminds me so much of Lydia Pense.

And this trailer clip gives some info about who played on the album:

I'm listening to Pebble to a Pearl right now. So far, it sounds great. It's so good to hear funk played on real instruments!

Sounds great, I ordered it. I love James Gadson!
