Album of the Day

Roberta Flack's third studio set, QUIET FIRE, might not have made as much sales noise as her debut but its reflective music will warm the heart of any listener. With producer Joel Dorn again at the helm, the 1971 Atlantic collection draws equally upon jazz, singer-songwriter, gospel and soul influences. Though opener “Go up Moses” is the only original, Flack's performances of such songs as “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” “To Love Somebody” and “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow” breathe new life into old favorites. The new digital 50th Anniversary Expanded Edition of QUIET FIRE adds seven bonus tracks from the period including versions of “What's Going On” and an epic take on “Superstar.”
