This album takes a nostalgic look at some of her own compositions from past albums. Although he original style takes roots as a pre-eminent jazz singer, in this album she demonstrates an eclectic recipe of influences ranging from soft country-blues to continental French subtle soul.

My god this album is a real find! It's a wonder I ever lived without Abbey in my life before this album came along. Growing up as a fan of brilliant Female Black vocalists like Billy Holliday, Nina Simone, Tracy Chapman, Lauren Hill, Erykah Badu and Mary J...it amazes me that I never once heard of Abbey Lincoln.

Some excellent covers, a decent track list, brings some more variety to a neglected genre 
Some covers are well below par Pretty damn good as far as prog rock goes All a bit dreamy occasionally Awesome talent, Vibrant enthusiasm, Too many more to mention Not in English Groundbreaking, Breathtaking, Your Gran Will Be Quaking! Difficult to graspNot relaxingIncomprehension of othersThe Unexpected - Beautiful Sin
Power metal that balances melody and heaviness. Female vocals are occasionally unimpressive, and the Helloween "cover" is plain cheeky.
The Scream - Siouxsie and the Banshees
Original for its time, highly influential Certainly not to everyone's tastes.....
The Room's Too Cold - Early November
Hardcore - 2003
Teknowhore - Bile
More atmospheric and compelling than the previous album. Some bizarre commercial deviations that don't sit well, and generally overlong and tedious.
State Of Control - Barren Cross
A more finely-honed performance, introducing progressive elements. Glam tendencies remain to spoil it.
Io Sono Nato Libero - Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso
Higher production values and continuation of the classical style. Structural problems from the first album are back in full force, spoiling all songs to some extent.
Illumination - Paul Weller
Very romantic, includes the song "It's Written in the Stars" Not all of the songs are as good
Grind Bastard - Benediction
Catchy, riff-driven death metal, with some interesting classic rock/metal covers. Sound is repetitive, and the album perhaps lasts a little too long for its style.
Coronation Thieves - Dragons of Zynth
Pop - 2007
Blindside - Blindside
A less aggro-centric Slipknot with slightly more musical ability. Nothing original, merely an obvious smorgasbord of influence.
