    For Anita Completists ONLY!!

    Pros: Live Anita Baker

    Cons: Not a flowing concert, just a collection of tracks from different dates, doesn't flow at all!

    For Anita Completists ONLY!!, July 14, 2004 Please, don't be fooled by the title of this CD, 'A Night Of Rapture...Live!'. Instead of getting an Anita Baker CONCERT, you get a collection live versions of songs from 'Rapture', comp...lete with nagging fade outs & silence after tracks. This CD does not flow like great concert albums are SUPPOSED TO! Rhino/WEA needs to be smacked hard for this crap, and once I get the original VHS tape, I'll make my own Anita Baker Live CD. The packaging/liner notes are very good, and the bonus footage is nothing but a weak teaser (can we get an 'Anita Baker Live' DVD PLEASE ??) There's no continuity on this CD, and I can't wait to get rid of it!!!! I gave this CD 3 stars because Anita is in good voice (for the most part), and the band is acceptable. F.Y.I. - Anita's rendition of the jazzy 'Moondance' made me feel a little better about this lame CD, but it's still headed straight to the first used CD bin I can find!! Chaka's World Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Night of Rapture - Live

  • All Music Guide

    It's been ten years since Anita Baker fans got any new material from their diva but it's coming. 2004 found Baker signing a contract with Blue Note and recording a new album. So if Bakermania is going to break out amongst the cosmopolitan again, her old home Warner Brothers must feel they've just got to have new Baker product on the shelves. Here Warner Brothers hands the singer over to their reissue imprint Rhino. The label could have done her fans a big favor if they reissued her 1987 VHS One Night of Rapture on DVD but instead they lifted the soundtrack and put it on this release. This should by no means be your first Baker purchase, but at least the fans get something for their decade of patience.

Biography

Anita Baker

With her classy, refined brand of romantic soul, Anita Baker was one of the definitive quiet storm singers of the '80s. Gifted with a strong, supple alto, Baker was influenced not only by RB, but jazz, gospel, and traditional pop, which gave her music a distinctly adult sophistication. Smooth and mellow, but hardly lifeless, it made her one of the most popular romantic ... Read more
