How Do I Make You
By Jim Shanman
This album is pretty average with a couple of standouts, none of which are the title track. I always thought she was a little overrated but every now and then she shows some range and talent. She should have left the rocking', boppin' stuff for others and focused on her ballads. Having said that, Girls' Talk is the best track and even gets a little bop out of her (and predates the Bangles and Go Gos). Hurt so Bad is a decent rock ballad and shows her true range while Look out for my Love is the sweeter, easier to listen to track that should have been the hit single. Rounding out the tracks worth listening to is How do I make you, but really, I give the overall all score a 3.0
