"Queen of Sex and Soul" Millie Jackson may well be one of the most underrated female singers in R&B. Because so much emphasis has been put on the raunchy, X-rated material that made her a mainstay among a staunchly loyal, mostly African American audience throughout the '70s, this Georgia-born sister is seldom cited as a key player in the vocal stakes. Fortunately, this first-ever two-CD retrospective of Jackson's work for New York-based Spring Records includes plenty of good old-fashioned Southern soul singing alongside the famous raps and monologues that made albums like 1974's Caught Up, 1975's Still Caught Up, and 1977's Feelin' Bitchy such bestsellers for the truth-tellin' Jackson. Hit singles like her first chart outing, the socially conscious "Child of God (It's Hard to Believe)" and her biggest, "Hurts So Good," are balanced with mainstays of her mid-'70s repertoire like "The Rap" and "If Loving You Is Wrong (I Don't Want to Be Right)" and humor-filled ditties like "Go Out and Get Some (Get It Out'cha System)" and the hilarious "Phuck U Symphony." Long before there was a Lil' Kim, there was Millie Jackson, and while mainstream pop audiences never quite caught the fire, this excellent compilation offers evidence of her stature as a workaday, earthy, one-of-a-kind urban diva. --David Nathan

Real and to the point........2007-05-03

Before Lil Kim, Foxy Brown and Missy Elliot, there was Millie Jackson. She was actually rapping before all of those ladies i just mentioned. Except one thing, Millie could sing along with talking trash. I really love hearing this lady perform. She's as real as real can get far as talking about relationships between men and women. This is a sho nuff must have to go in your archives. You won't find a better collaboration of songs by this soulful artist.

Sure, there are a few songs that were left out ("Put Something Down On It") and some others that should have been left out ("I'm Through Trying to Prove My Love to You"); but this is a great collection of Millie's songs. The packaging is great, too: the booklet includes an essay, complete track information, and a discography. There is only one track ("Symphony") from her live albums and nothing from her "Just a Lil' Bit Country" album, but otherwise this is a good representation of her 1972-1983 Spring records career.

This is the best compilation of Millie's work so far. Totally old school, blues, and deep rhythm and blues. She's got it all, and if you buy this CD, your'e sure to hear it all. Gangsta rap aint got nothin' on this woman. She lets it all hang out.

millie tells it like it is.......2003-01-10

I miss blues singers like millie you think lil kim, and trina are explicit they took notes from millie here she talks about all kinds of things even oral sex, and how young girls fall for older men, millie gets deep and personal can you handle this.

Sounds different this time around.......2000-01-22

While you might expect Millie Jackson's work to sound very dated this long after release, I found almost the opposite to be true. Yes, there is a decidedly 70's feel to many cuts here - a vibe that generally works to her advantage. But material that was tinted by "raciness" at the time of its release feels very tame by contemporary standards and it turns out that Jackson's infamous salaciousness was NOT the only appeal; most of these songs stand up on their own even without controversy or scandal to sell them. What's more, the collection has been very well selected and one realizes for perhaps the first time how varied her output was and how versatile a singer she could be. (Since most of her individual albums were heavily "themed," this versatility has never really been showcased before.) Yes, she frequently liked to play the role of the shameless "other woman" and yes, she sounds a lot like Gladys Knight. But she also has a distinctive style and makes some very interesting choices. She's as risky as she is risque.
