"Stephanie Mills was definitely one of the best singers of my generation with a voice truly unique. This album "Home" is arguably her best work ( to me it is - can't be topped ). But she sings at a level so soulful and meaningful; belting out those notes like nobody's business. You can tell that she put emotion, thought and effort into crafting these beautiful numbers. With no songs under the 4 minute and thirty second mark, she gives you time to digest the material. Her singing never gets boring and the melodies and backdrops are moving and exciting. Her songs sort of remind me of some extended gospel songs. Yea the actual song is over but they keep on singing it and it doesn't lose its flare it had when it started; and when it's finally over you wanna sing it some more. The uptempo numbers don't compare with the ballads but are nonetheless entertaining songs. The real meat though is in the soulful ballads like the incredible Home or Comfort Of A Man. Something In The Way You Make Me Feel is also an all-time classic. This cd is jamming and you should get this soulful classic as soon as possible. 5 stars."

A GOOD SONG NEVER DIES!!!

"And this one has so many that it is investment worth making. The highlight, however, is "Home," a reworking of the Mills' signature song from "The Wiz." Mills magnificently performs it backed by a super orchestral/chorus arrangement.Hearing this one will send chills up and down the spine of everyone within earshot!"

SUPERB!

"I THINK THAT THIS IS STEPHANIE'S BEST ALBUM, ALTHOUGH ANYTHING SHE SINGS IS THE BEST. I DON'T THINK THAT SHE IS GIVEN NEARLY ENOUGH RECOGNITION FOR BEING SUCH A POWERFUL VOCALIST. STEPHANIE PUTS SO MUCH ENERGY INTO SINGING "HOME". THIS PARTICULAR SONG JUST MAKES YOU THINK BACK TO ALL THOSE WONDERFUL TIMES YOU HAD WHEN GROWING UP, AND PUTS A SMILE ON YOUR FACE. THIS CD SENDS OUT A SORT OF SPIRITUAL MESSAGE. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE, BECAUSE THE SONGS HAVE STRONG MEANINGS IF YOU JUST LISTEN TO THE LYRICS."
