"Spotted by Jagger, signed to Immediate Records and groomed for stardom, the US soul singer's 60s fairytale turned grim when her RSO label debut was shelved, leaving the tracks scattered or gummed in red tape. Cue the wilderness years - Was it worth Arnold sacrificing four decades of her life to reclaim The Turning Tide? Christ, yes. This is a stomping, hollering soul-blues master class, with a tag-team production by Eric Clapton and Barry Gibb that's younger than yesterday".

"The Turning Tide, if it had come out at the time, would not only have been one of the top albums of the year and also gone down in history as a classic. The near 50 years that have elapsed since recording mean only that its passage to that status has been delayed. It doesn't sound dated at all either as the quality on show of the songs, music and the vocal performances from Arnold herself render it timeless. Quite frankly to die for, a simply superb recording".
