Come to My Garden (1970) introduced the world to Minnie Riperton,
the solo artist. Minnie captivated listeners with her
earth-shattering voice's uncanny ability to evoke melancholy and
exultance. Born out of Charles Stepney's masterful composition and
Richard Rudolph's attentive songwriting, the album fused a plethora
of music genres. A blip in the universe of fusion music that would
come to dominate the 1970s, Come to My Garden also featured the
work of young bandleaders like Ramsey Lewis and Maurice White, thus
bridging the divide between jazz and R&B. Despite fairly
positive reviews of the album, even in its many re-releases, it
never garnered critical attention. Minnie Riperton's Come to My
Garden by Brittnay L. Proctor uses rare archival ephemera, the
multiple re-issues of the album, interviews, cultural history, and
personal narrative to outline how the revolutionary album came to
be and its lasting impact on popular music of the post-soul era
(the late 20th to the early 21st century).
