Stone's biggest problem remains her unlikely success story; marveling that this is some teenage Limey can make it difficult to discern whether you're responding to novelty or authentically memorable music. And the retro R&B created by its three producers is so convincing that any concessions to modernity are unwelcome. But Stone's voice--whether purring out pure sizzle on "Torn and Tattered" or preaching the gospel according to Joss on "Spoiled"--ultimately makes those concerns critical hair-splitting; Mind, Body & Soul simply has too much of the latter to ignore.
