I love Elmer Bernstein, his compositions are so flawless and so warm. I'm also a big fan of Dorothy Dandrige, but I'm ashamed to say this , but I've never actually seen this movie because I don't like Halle Berry lol....

I love this soundtrack its flawless to me and Wendi Williams vocals are angelic. I dont know much about her but I wish she come out with an album
on Hally Berry: I am nonchalant when it comes to her... | |

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |
