Rating: - Another Soulful Album from the great Anita Baker
If you loved "Rapture" or "The Songstress," you'll love "Giving You the Best That I Got" by the great and soulful Anita Baker. This album has an excellent mix of soul, jazz, and a little bit of bossa-nova. Here's my review of my favorite songs by Anita from this album.
1.) Good Love: This is my favorite song off the album. It's so jazzy and soulful.
2.) Leading Me Into Love: I love how the song starts out a little slow and then has a upbeat tempo throughout the song.

Rating: - ON ALBUM NUMBER 3 ANITA BAKER DELIVERED YET ANOTHER HIT!
Not as strong her first two previous releases, but this held it's own, and still proved that she was here to stay! She had a #1 Hit with the Title Track, a Top Ten R&B Smash with "Just Because". This project includes Album Favorites: "Good Love" & "Lead Me Into Love". Although this project only had 8 Tracks, I'm pretty sure the wasn't about to kill album sells with pulling a Third Single, but when everything was said and done Anita Baker had another Top Selling Gold Album!!!
Rating: - An continuation of excellence...
In this recording Anita Baker continues her unique, emotionally filled ballad style. Now when I say this, understand that these songs are distinct from Rapture. No veiled repeated progressions or formulas. These pieces are of the same high quality though.
Once again Anita conveys the sense of passionate romance with a magnificent voice. Songs filled with longing. She is well accompanied by top flight musicians and the outstanding vocal quartet: Perri, i.e. the Perry sisters ... Read More
Rating: - GOING BACK TO A GENTLER, KINDER TIME!
This is Anita's finest album ever. You can feel the love this lady has for her husband. Ms Anita Baker has brought "love" back from the 80s to a much-needed timeframe of the "now and ever so hateful" new millenium! Anita takes me back to a time when the Black woman loved to be put a pedestal..have her toes kissed..to be loved, caressed & courted..to be worshipped. The 80s were a time when a Black man, like Anita's man, wasn't considered "weak" because he is loving man. Thank you Anita for sharing ... Read More
Rating: - An essential album for all true jazz and R&B fans.
This all-time classic was one of 1988's truly superior R&B albums. At a time when most Urban R&B was losing its soulfulness and essence at an alarming rate, Baker (thankfully) refused to compromise her artistry and talents--in the end, she came up with a real winner in every way. "Just Because", "Lead Me Into Love", "Priceless", "Good Love" and the title track are timeless ballads from one of the greatest R&B and jazz DIVAS of all time.
