Shirley Brown scored back in the day with &Woman to Woman,& but she's hardly past her prime; in fact, this soulful, gritty collection proves most definitely that Ms. Brown is in her stride. Producers Wolf Stephenson, Bobby Manual, Richard Cason, and Shirley herself help make this 11-track CD a force to be reckoned with -- one devastating, deep-soul drama after another. The first track, &Why You Want to Love Me Like That,& is so satisfying you'll take awhile to hear the rest of the CD, 'cause you'll keep repeating this track. Buoyed by the Muscle Shoals Horns and a crack rhythm section, Brown's bell-clear vocals could stir the dead. There isn't a loser in the bunch; especially inviting are &Female Player,& &Don't Go Lookin' for My Man& (which includes a rap), &You Left a Good Woman for a Good Time,& and &I Caught You With Your Pants Down.& As Ken Hawkins, a DJ in Cleveland during the '60s, used to say, &if you don't like this, you got a hole in your soul.&
