Melinda Doolittle “Coming Back to You” HiFi Recordings Pop : R&B UPC: 796019818247 |
“Her solo debut, Coming Back to You, connects her to venerable elders like Gladys Knight and, yes, early Aretha, but instead of sounding trapped within an antique box, Doolittle comes across as vital and vibrant. Now is the time for listeners to remember that this gospel-bred former backup singer has an earth-shaking gift.” – LA Times |
