Howard Made's Sunday Jams: Minnie Riperton - Les Fleurs

Published on 2020-02-16 00:00:00 by Howard Made

This opening song from the 1970 Come To My Garden album is perfect for boosting your spirits after storm Ciara and storm Dennis have been kicking the fuck off. She writes this song about being a flower as a metaphor for blossoming into a person I guess, its hella cute and throws a couple of innuendos in cos its Minnie Riperton, be rude if she didnt, nothing as sexy as Inside My Love though. And the outro is stunning, it makes me wanna do high kicks round my room. 4 hero actually covered this song as well for their Creating Patterns album which was ridiculously similar and I always thought that was a bit weird.
