250pcs limited repressing.This rare album, finally available on both CD and LP, features the amazing vocals of Linda Hoyle (of Affinity and Nucleus), often referred to as the "British Grace Slick". But even without these impressive credentials in her portfolio, Hoyle's beautiful solo album stands firmly on its own two feet. It includes several previously unreleased tracks, plus a cover of Nina Simone's "Backlash Blues" and Laura Nyro's "Lonely Woman". The album's line-up includes guitarist Chris Spedding (Nucleus) as well as drummer John Marshall and bassist Karl Jenkins (both of Soft Machine and Nucleus). Unfortunately Hoyle wouldsoon part ways with the music scene, leaving this solo album behind as a final testimony to her amazing talent.
