Let it be me : the Atlantic recordings (1967-1970)

"Every major soul commentator is in agreement - The Sweet Inspirations were soul's premier female vocal group - with the emphasis, of course, on soul. Sure, groups like the Supremes and the rest of the Motown contingent, the Three Degrees, the Shirelles, the Ronettes and others might have enjoyed more hits and notoriety but none of those could ever hope to match the sanctified, soulful testifying of the "Sweets". If you doubt that contention then may we point you to this wonderful new retrospective which brings together all the music they recorded for Atlantic between 1967 and 1970 - without doubt, the group's golden age".

"The Sweet Inspirations as a separate act never achieved the same fame as backup singers, but this anthology reveals what other artists like Elvis and Aretha always knew. They had marvelous voices and knew how to wrap themselves around a song, even if you just let them be by themselves".
