Rhino's 2001 retrospective
The Very Best of Miki Howard is a generous, near-definitive overview of
Howard's biggest R&B hits from the '80s. She didn't have many crossover hits, but she did have numerous entries on the R&B charts, all of which are here, including a duet with
Gerald Levert, "That's What Love Is." Although this is a little lengthy for listeners with abbreviated attention spans, it does summarize
Howard's peak very well, and is as comprehensive a
Howard retrospective as could be hoped for. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
