After Nancy Wilson signed to Columbia Records following a lengthy stint at
Capitol, she tried for a contemporary R&B style on such albums as Forbidden
Lover and Nancy Now!, largely without success. A Lady with a Song, the 52nd
album by the soon-to-be-53-year-old singer, is another effort in the same
direction. The arrangements are full of electronic keyboard washes, popping
basslines, and soulful female backup vocals with the occasional piercing
saxophone part, all in support of (and at times overwhelming) Wilson's smoky
alto vocals. The material includes the statement of purpose that is the title
song, the arousing "This Love Is What I Need," and the gospel-styled closing
anthem "Heaven's Hands," each of which requires Wilson to come out of her
jazz-pop comfort zone and try for growls and wails. It sounds like she and her
producer had been listening to recent Arista Records releases by Aretha Franklin
and Dionne Warwick, and trying to do something similar. But the quality of the
songwriting lets Wilson down, and, anyway, the approach is not natural to her.
She is jazzier and classier than this kind of thing, and while she made a
valiant attempt to meet the R&B charts more than halfway, she is not heard at
her best here.~William Ruhlmann
