Smoldering & passionate gorgeous cover photo tell the story about the blistering content contained throughout mesmerizing "Thelma Houston" masterpiece, following Jimmy Webb produced & composed glorious "Sunshower" masterpiece, these tremendous master-class vocal collections should have sold millions while winning numerous Grammy Awards, yet the Music Industry for some strange reason didn't give push and promotion to these phenomenal works, so except for us extremely lucky hardcore music lovers, these classic soul-deep hypnotic gems sadly went unnoticed by the masses, this sublime Motown Records debut Lp strangely went unreleased on Compact Disc close to forty years! "Thelma Houston" like luminous predecessor "Sunshower" is timeless in its appeal, showcasing one of the greatest and most glorious voices in music over the past fifty years, thankfully legendary lady still in magnificent form and anyone lucky to be around when the amazing lady is performing live, don't miss the opportunity to see a gifted artist in concert who is a totally mesmerizing musical experience beyond compare. Original "Thelma Houston" LP release features amazing variety with great songs like haunting & mesmerizing "I'm Letting Go", stunning passionate performance alone worth price of entire collection...unforgettable songs composed by a first-rate range of composers such as Patti Dahlstrom, Anthony Newley, Kris Kristofferson, Gloria Jones, Al Cooper, legendary team Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil while incredible bonus tracks feature composing masters Michael Masser/Pam Sawyer/Gloria Jones and Berry Gordy, yet with all this diversity songs flow like honey throughout this brilliant collection that has got to be best ever vocal collection on classic Motown Records...Bravo Thelma Houston, you're a peerless & magnificent original!
