Twinkie Terrell - Comin' Home (CD)

Comin Home

By Tony  Jan 21, 2007

Pros: Good effort

Cons: Mediocre production

Twinkie has a way of touching your soul like few artists do. The sincerity and emotion in her voice resonates with such natural fluidity. She doesn't need to "DRESS IT UP" or "OVER DRAMATIZE", all she needs to do is SING. Unfortunately, the production on this release is sorely lacking. The title track is reminiscent of Janet but without the quality. However, there are some tracks that simply need that classic Twinkie magic, such as the pleasant and inspiring: "Holy Spirit", and the funky and bold: "He Does Exceedingly", and of course the soul stirring traditional: "Medley Spiritual/ Soon I Will Be Done". I can only imagine how these songs would have sounded if the production had been up-to-par. My hope is that she revisits this album and produce it the way it should have been done. I will be among the first to purchase the rerelease. A final note: the album cover is somewhat interesting. I would say it speaks of Twinkie being touched by God with the ability to do what she does so well...sing and play to the glory of God!
