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, \u003ci\u003eCome to My Garden\u003c\/i\u003e also featured the work of young bandleaders like Ramsey Lewis and Maurice White, thus bridging the divide between jazz and R\u0026amp;B. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Despite fairly positive reviews of the album, even in its many re-releases, it never garnered critical attention. \u003ci\u003eMinnie Riperton's Come to My Garden\u003c\/i\u003e 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).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brittnay L.
