'Ciara' album not so special

THE lead single from Ciara's self-titled fifth album, "Body Party," (Epic Records) is an oozing, seductive R&B track that deserves rousing applause - especially when the 27-year-old matches the song with daring and sensual dance moves.

The bedroom groove is easily the best of the 11 tracks that make up "Ciara." There are others that shine, too: The bouncy "Livin' It Up," the mid-tempo "Read My Lips," and the semi-electronic beat of "Overdose."

Still, the album doesn't feel special. "Ciara" isn't cohesive, but instead, sporadic.
