The sultry British songstress returns...

"The silken voiced diva returns. Mica releases Soul Classics, a collection of the most celebrated and loved soul tracks, to which she brings her very special vocal magic originally recorded by male legends such as Marvin Gay, Sam Cooke, Al Green and Ray Charles. From the infectious "Let's Stay Together" to the sublime sound of "I Can't Stop Loving You" plus "You Send Me", "Amazing Grace" and "Tracks Of My Tears" Mica shows that she is a true soul great."
Mica phones it in...sad, really

"I love Mica Paris and have ALL her CDs, but this desperate attempt to scoring a baby-boomer MOR crossover hit in the U.S. is just lame - pedestrian cover choices, flat arrangements, and then, of course, there's Mica herself, barely working up a sweat as she literally seems to merely phone it in - her vocals are the most limp, lackluster of her long career - dig deep back to 80s/90s soul hits like MY ONE TEMPTATION or I WANNA HOLD ONTO YOU and see how blander Mica has become - is this her label or the artist herself? Either way, this won't please longtime fans - I suggest Mica get her old label Island/4th&Broadway to reissue her rare remixes & Bsides on CD - especially the long-lost BRUCE FORREST U.S. DANCE MIX of her debut smash MY ONE TEMPTATION - now that's searing, soulful Mica in her prime!"
