She also makes her | | vocal debut on the album's two ballads, "Just a Love Child" and | | "Baby's Gone"; her voice is girlish but stronger than the genre | | standard, even the backing vocals by the Mizells and keyboardist Fred | | Perren. Overall, the album's cumulative effect is like a soft summer | | breeze, perfect for beaches, barbecues, and cruising with the top | | down. | | | | | | YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS SHIT IF YOU LIKE IT RIGHT?! | | | | | | . . | | |\/\/| | | |____| | |------------------------------=---=-======-=---=-------------------------| |===/\===============================SOUNDz==========================/\===| '--/__\--------------------------=-2013-2020-=----------------------/__\--'
