Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 404/500!

1987 Grammy Award Winner:
• Best R&B Vocal Performance, Female: "Rapture"
• Best Rhythm & Blues Song: "Sweet Love"

Rapture, the chart-topping Grammy award winning 1986 sophomore album from iconic songstress Anita Baker, gets a new vinyl reissue as part of the celebration of Elektra Records' 75th Anniversary. Featuring soulful classics like "Sweet Love" and "Caught Up in the Rapture," this multi-platinum selling record has rarely appeared on vinyl since its original pressing nearly 40 years ago.

To its credit, Elektra made her a major star by focusing on Baker's strong point — romantic but gospel-influenced R&B/pop ballads and 'slow jams,' sometimes with jazz overtones — and letting her be true to herself. Rapture gave Baker one moving hit after another.
-Alex Henderson, AllMusic, 5/5
An album of deep romantic intimacy that sounded like little else in Eighties pop but still went multiplatinum.
-Rolling Stone
a slow-burning and symphonic piece of quiet storm R&B that floods every sense
-Pitchfork
