Summary: Nikka goes old school
Comment: Nikka Costa can not make bad music so I'm going to love anything she does. This collection sounds like she's gone old school a little. Still some funk though. Recommended for all NC fans.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best Yet
Comment: I have two other CD's by her and I believe this one has topped those two works of hers. Great lyrics, great musicians to back her up and you get a great CD. Buy it you will not be disappointed.

Summary: That Nikka!!
Comment: Listened to it 4 times and I purchased it 24 hours ago. It is amazing. This album was the worth the wait. All the songs are written by her and hubby. They are a great team.

Summary: our modern queen of funk
Comment: i just second what everyone else has already said. this is by far her best album yet, i almost didn't know what to expect since her other two are also fantastic. THIS album, has truly really and absolutely got that amazing old school funk/soul vibe, i can't stop listening to it! this album makes me want to dance and sing and wish i myself was just as funky as nikka :)

Summary: Her best album yet!
Comment: The funkiest white girl since Teena Marie hits her full stride on this soulful and uplifting independent release. (The album's been licensed to legendary soul label Stax for distribution.) Costa said jumping off the sinking ship that is the major-label record business reinvigorated her as an artist. "Pebble" proves that assertion -- brimming with absolute craft and confidence on cuts like the strutting "Can't Please Everybody," the title track (a terrific Stevie Wonder-circa-'73 homage), vocal showcase "Without Love," and Dub dream "Damn I Said It First." Highly recommended for funk/soul fans!

Editorial Reviews:

The latest radiant gem by the gifted singer-songwriter and performer Nikka Costa -- is far and away her most direct and convincing musical statement yet. If this is Costa's most pleasing album to date -- and it clearly is -- then it's exactly because the woman singing to us so powerfully has finally found the creative freedom to first and foremost please herself.
