Presenting Cissy Houston [[with bonus tracks)

Cissy Houston

$13.99 ... CD

CD [[Item 609642) Janus/Soulmusic.com [[UK), 1970 — Condition: New Copy
Amazing early work from Cissy Houston – arguably her deepest set ever, and put together with a wonderful balance of New York class and southern soul modes! There's no denying that Houston's vocals are great – especially given her family pedigree – but she really gets a chance to shine strongly here – stepping out as a bold, righteous lead – and one with a mature, all-adult feel throughout! Arrangements are by Bert DeCoteaux – who balances things wonderfully – really letting Cissy stand by herself in the front of the arrangements, but also creating just the right sort of swell in the orchestrations when needed. Titles include "I'll Be There", "Any Guy", "This Empty Place", "Didn't We", "Be My Baby", "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself", and "He/I Believe". CD has an insane amount of bonus tracks – 12 more tracks from rare singles – including "I Love You", "Only Time You Say You Love Me", "Midnight Train To Georgia", "It's Not Easy", "Making Love", "Darling Take Me Back", and "Hang On To A Dream". © 1996-2012, Dusty Groove America, Inc.

I love Cissy's, or Saint Cissy as she's known in New York and New Jersey as, version of Midnight Train to Georgia and Didn't we. What a voice.
