Smooth jazz styled vocalist Nancy Wilson was at the height of her popularity with the release of Today My Way. Adult orientated material such as this became commercially less successful with the rise of new pop and rock artists. (US:7)
"The 1960s and 1970s are considered the prime years of soul and R & B music. Consequently almost all black singers were comfortably snuggled into either one of those niches. Nancy Wilson was a singer, period. She had her share of popular hits but she pretty much stayed true to her own muse, more of a jazz singer."
"If you are new to Nancy lie back, relax and absorb. Nancy Wilson is listening and feeling music. This is singing about feelings and experiences through a grown woman's prism."
"Any list of the greatest female vocalists of the twentieth century will have to include Nancy Wilson. Blessed with a stunning and supple voice, unusually gifted at lyric interpretation, perfect timing, colour and intonation and formidable stage presence, Wilson has it all."
"Ms. Wilson is to say the least 'simply beyond description'. No one, absolutely no one, can phrase a song with the style and range that she can."
"To listen to Nancy Wilson you have to get into the mood. You let her cool, sophisticated and sultry voice seep into your inner soul and let her melt your troubles and cares away. Her sounds are sweet, warm and cosy, just like a warm comfortable blanket."
