キス・ミー・ウィズ・ザ・ウインド

"KISS ME WITH THE WIND"は、ブレンダ・ラッセル五枚目のソロアルバム。 アルバムは、UK Blues＆Soul Top British SoulAlbumsチャートの25位に。 
 解説 
4枚目のアルバムGet Here （1988）が成功した後、ラッセルはさまざまなプロデューサーやソングライターと再びコラボレーション。ラッセルは前のアルバムよりもダンス志向の傾斜を取り、有名なソングライター/プロデューサーのナラダ・マイケル・ウォルデンと協働。ナラダマイケルウォルデンは、タイトルトラックと「Stop Running Away」を含む、アルバムの2つのトラックを共同執筆およびプロデュースした。どちらもシングルとしてリリースされた。

ナラダ・マイケル・ウォルデンをプロデューサーに迎えた2曲以外はBrenda Russell単独のアレンジで独りで打ち込みによって製作された作品が多く、今までで一番内向的な作品になっている。

André Fischerとの最後の作品で、A&Mにおいての最終作でもあり、この後レコード会社とのパーマネントな契約は結ばれることは無く単独契約でのリリースが続くことになる。

当時海外ではLPやCTもリリースされたが、日本国内ではCDのみのリリースとなっている。

その後現在までどの国でも再発されておらず、現在は配信のみで入手が可能となっている。
