For her entire career, Patti Austin (who began singing at age five!) has explored the overl Intimate Patti Austin draws mainly from 1981's Every Home Should Have One, 1985's Gettin' Away with Murder, 1988's The Real Me, and 1990's Love Is Gonna Getcha, with detours into the singer's appearances on Sadao Watanabe's Front Seat and Quincy Jones' From Q with Love. Only a couple tracks date later than 1990, and since nothing predates Every Home, there's plenty of fitting material left out, especially some highlights -- like "Say You Love Me," "That's Enough for Me," and "Body Language" -- from her three CTI studio albums. Nonetheless, this Austin comp has its own character and legitimate reasons for existing, even though you'd be hard-pressed to form a comp with songs that aren't intimate. The top highlights include "Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)," "Summer Is the Coldest Time of Year," and -- of course -- the quiet storm classic "Baby, Come to Me." Some listeners are bound to have issues with any number of the production styles here, but Austin's performances always shine through. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi

Frapping areas between jazz, R&B, and pop, with the main constant being her earnest, heartfelt, and engaging vocals. INTIMATE collects Austin tracks from previous albums EVERY HOME SHOULD HAVE ONE, THE REAL ME, GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER, and LOVE IS GONNA GETCHA, covering the years 1981to 1990, as well as appearances alongside Quincy Jones and Japanese sax wizard Sadao Watenabe. This set presents Austin in a healthy variety of studio contexts.

Patti Austin is the US-born R&B and jazz singer who topped the charts with “Baby Come to Me” in 1982. She has also provided her vocal talents to the industry’s best including Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson.

At the age of 5, Austin was performing on stage and had a record deal with RCA. Her teenage years were spent as a session singer, and she was 19 before she entered the chart as a solo performer, with “Family Tree” in 1969. It was another seven years until she released her debut album, End of a Rainbow. Since then, she has had a steady schedule of solo releases, with highlights including The Real Me and Love is Gonna Getcha. Her most recent album, 2007’s Avant Gershwin, was awarded the Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album.

In tandem with her solo career, she sang with Michael Jackson on the Off the Wall album, and also with George Benson, Roberta Flack and Luther Vandross. Her most successful collaboration was with James Ingram and “Baby Come to Me”: the track, from Austin’s Every Home Should Have One, topped the US Hot 100 charts in 1982.
