Perfect Angel: Deluxe Edition on CD

USM are pleased to announce the release of this deluxe edition of Minnie Riperton's "Perfect Angel". The original album was released on Epic in 1974 and became gold-certified; it features the global No. 1 hit, "Lovin' You," also gold-certified. Kept quiet at the time, Stevie Wonder co-produced, wrote two songs, and plays keyboards, drums or harmonica on every track. The balance of the backing and background singers are Stevie's band Wonderlove. The iconic album cover was shot by Barry Feinstein, known for his Bob Dylan images and the LP covers for Janis Joplin's Pearl, Eric Clapton's solo debut and George Harrison's All Things Must Pass. This Deluxe Edition includes 11 bonus tracks, featuring extended or alternate versions of each album cut, plus the single mix of "Lovin' You" and a track not included on the LP. One bonus track is a duet version of "Take A Little Trip" with Stevie Wonder. Minnie's husband, Richard Rudolph, was interviewed to provide new liner notes for this set.
