Thoughts

This album popped up in Apple’s new releases, as there was a fresh version out to celebrate its 20th anniversary. TWENTY years. Madness. I remember listening to this album when it came out, I was a huge Alicia fan at the time and this was her second album that really followed the greatness of the first. Lots of piano, obviously, sweeping and soaring moments, alongside down and dirty R&B at the same time. Wonderful stuff.

Rating: 5 / 5
