"Loleatta's first two albums together on one CD, with four bonus tracks unissued at the time. Loleatta Holloway was a tremendous soul singer who came naturally to the genre following her years with the famed gospel group the Caravans in her home city of Chicago. She was persuaded to move into R&B by local jazz guitarist, songwriter and producer Floyd Smith, whom she would go on to marry. Her first two 45s were cut in Chicago, but it was her signing to Michael Thevis' newly formed Aware label of Atlanta, Georgia which started her career in earnest".
