Mica Paris - 07-11-2007, 02:48 PM

I think she's a phenomenal soul singer. Tried to get her added before I was in MM, but all I got is "try back in a couple of months". Now that I am in MM they responded right away and asked which albums. So, fingers crossed, I am can fill the missing items in my collection. Actually, I've got 3 CDs of her, but some others are out of print or only available in the UK. More than happy to support her fully. I'd happily purchase them if I could. As it is, I'd try it with MM.

Hi vik.


I only have two of her albums (CD's):

Mica Paris - The Best Of Mica Paris (1999)

and a rather rare one from 1988 bought last year on eBay (I even have this one on vinyl):

Mica Paris - So Good


I think that her version of One is MUCH better than U2's version (which is good)...

I bough "So Good" last year on eBay too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW

Her duet with Will Downing is the #1 played song on my iPod, followed by "So Good" and her rendition of "I put a Spell on You" with Jools Holland Opera.

Oh yeah? Check this out:

http://www.iomoio.com/artist.php?a_aid=2337

Checking out these guys' catalogue to see if they can measure up to the beloved, the precious. Not so much on MC Solaar, though.

If you want any of this, I can get it for you (my friend got credit there to get some 80s music for her party on Sat, and of course **the precious** is closed).

The Precious!!!! hehehehehhehe

Thanks for offering, but I think I am all set for now. Got proper CDs. I think the albums at that link are actually just tracks from a compilation, not her own CDs.

Also love Mica, have all her cd's (from before the flood ). By the way, Lavamus has a couple, including her Black Angel cd, if you're interested. They also have her latest - soul classics. I pre-listened and was very unhappy - with her voice and emotion, she put very little (imho) feeling or anything new into some older r&b. Very disappointing.

You're right. None of the R&B classics fit her voice - emotion or not.
I have all of her CDs now too.
