Jody Watley, who introduced the phrase “Hasta La Vista, Baby” into the popular vernacular, has returned with her third solo LP, “Affairs of the Heart.” In a departure, the singer often slows down the tempo on a theme LP examining the stages of a relationship.
Watley has always had attitude to spare, but now, especially on the gospel-flavored “It All Begins With You,” she exhibits dynamic vocals.
