Released in 1970 and produced by the prestigious Charles Stepney, "Come To My Garden" is the debut studio album by R&B/Soul singer Minnie Riperton. The purity and virtuosity of Minnie Riperton's vocals are seeped in Stepney's orchestral flourishes and jazz-inspired driving grooves courtesy of Ramsey Lewis' rhythm section. Minnie Riperton is arguably one of the most overlooked soul voices of this era. An unforgettable piece of seductive chamber-soul history, re-issued on ecomix vinyl.
