1001 Albums Summary

I Love Your Lovin’ ways- good start to the album and has catchy lyrics. 6/10 Four Women- The album cover says it’s “unforgettable” and it’s correct. Encapsulates feeling with lyrics and Nina’s beautiful voice. Simple yet powerful. 9/10 What More Can I say- Much like most of the songs on this album, this is just good. Nina’s Piano work plus her voice makes anything an instant classic. I like her slower songs. 7/10 Lilac Wine- Slow, lyrical and hypnotizing. 9/10 That’s All I Ask- none of the songs on this album are bad, but some just don’t hit as much as the rest. Still great though. 6/10 Break Down and Let It All Out- love the emotion in this song, the mastering is also great. Nina sings in your left ear while the bass plays behind her, and the drums stay in your right. 7/10 Why Keep On Breaking My Heart- I love the flow of this song, it’s different from the others on this album and is refreshing. 7/10 Wild Is the Wind- A YouTube comment described her piano playing “As If God is telling her what to play.” Absolutely stunning work, silky smooth vocalizations from Nina make this song an easy 10/10. Black is the Color of my True Loves Hair- A slower one, but still good. It lets me really feel the waves that Nina’s voice goes through. 7/10 If I Should Loose you- It feels redundant writing these when every song is good. What do you want me to say? Great piano. Great voice. 7/10 Ether Way I Loose- a good closer to the album, I love the bass playing in the left ear as well as the trumpet. Still smooth but more upbeat than the others on the album. 8/10
