Manhattan Transfer
Tonin'
It's simply fun!!
Review Score:
(8/10)This Top Notch vocal group puts their "spin" on some classic R & B recordings. They are great at taking something already wonderful and making it even better!!
To make it even MORE fun they work really well with the guest artists! I think this was probably one of the, if not THE last recording that Laura Nyro made before she passed away. It's a great rendition of La-La Means I Love You.
Chaka Kahn and Janis Siegel really belt out a great version of "Hot Fun in the Summertime". As strong a presence as Chakka is... Janis Siegel holds her own with no problem!!
Speaking of summertime, I LOVE to listen to this CD while riding with windows all the way down on the way to the beach!!
You'll like this CD!
