The Queen of Fun Makes an Album That Isn't
Hey don't get me wrong. I love Miss Lauper. Her "She's So Unusual" was one of the first albums I ever owned. I was given the album on vinyl and now we own most of her albums on CD. I love even her lesser known work, like "Sisters of Avalon". Well, I've listened to "At Last" and I'm sorry to say that these covers are mediocre at best. Nothing grabbed my attention and Lauper's fantastic voice never seems to be used to it's fullest potential. Lauper has entered her 50s now and I'm hoping we'll see better albums in her future. Like Bowie and Cher who have done some of their coolest stuff in their 50s. When she does drop another terrific album, then I'll really say "at last".
