submeat's top 100 tracks of 2003: songs to download and love
#66 "Photographs," Jody Watley (Shanachie)
A couple of weeks ago, discussing this top 100 with Erik, he asked if there were any albums represented which hadn't spun off singles. I immediately named Watley's Midnight Lounge, available in Japan since '01 but only out in the U.S. last year. She's got two songs on my chart, and deservedly so, as Lounge is clearly her finest work. Watley's back where she belongs, making sexy, seductive, deep house records, including this one: "Photographs" is a fairly minimal work, with lots of room to breathe and stretch out.
