Dionne farris/WiMseed -Wild Flower (Columbia). Farris, formerly of Arrested Development, hits all the right notes on Wild Seed - Wild Flower, her first solo project.It's a sanguine, upbeat and socially responsible 62 minutes of melodic, eclectic music. Farris has layered funk, rock, soul and blues in densely and deftly textured rhythms. Farris's voice is magnificent throughout.The CD opens and closes with versions of I Know, an energetic blues-ahd-dance concoction overridden With Farris’s silky vocals.Sandwiched in between are such gems as the funky, neo-gospel Reality, the haunting and plaintive tale of abuse, Don't Ever Touch Me (Again), the funk-soul-gospel of Water, a terrific funky blues rendition of the Beatles’ Blackbird, and the a ckppella Human. 1/2“ John Lyons
