I am truly a genuine hardcore Minnie Riperton fan...and I should have been added this stuff but I finally got around to it :) ...

This Song Is from Minnie's first solo project with Charles Stephney as the producer and arranger ,entitled "Come To My Garden" I love that entire album....but this song just lullabys my soul and spirit it is incredibly beautiful....and I hope all of you out there can appreciate it....

She's known as a one hit wonder, while this album is better than some rock n roll hall of famers discographies.

She's known as a 1 hit wonder....which she is not....I don't think people who are in the top 10 & top 5 are one hit wonders,Vh1 stereotyped her on their show 1 Hit Wonders because of her having only "1" number "1" POP record,her songs like "Inside My Love" wen't to #5 in the adult Contemp "Memory Lane" if im not mistaken went to number 14,and so on and so forth....I hate when people give the wrong information ...this lady is an R&B Legend....PERIOD

Listen to that....complete sophistication and class at its highest rate.... listen to the dramatic climax at the end.....those notes are incredible with the orchestra backing her ...... i wish i could see minnie perform LIVE....I wish she was still here.....her voice is a treasure

i love this song....it's probably my favorite Minnie Riperton song of all time so i gotta give props to 9th for re-introducing us to this classic, but more props to Minnie for that angelic voice

Who ever said she was a one hit wonder is seriously smoking powerful crack. Minnie has a lot of hits. She died relatively young and would have been a very powerful to reckon with had she lived. She's had such a huge huge impact on hip hop culture. 9th Wonder, A Tribe Called Quest, etc. Today's R&B have no soul whatsoever. This is a true artists in its purest form.

@GeoGP

Incredibly wonderful! This album is a treasure left for us to see the magic of life through the voice of a magical Human Being : Minnie Riperton.

No - Deniece Williams sang it. Niecy sang with Minnie in Wonderlove (and did back-ups on 'Everytime He Comes Around'). The song you want is called 'Free' :) Mx
