The album that started it all! Spanky Wilson's legendary debut from Mother's Records saw Philadelphia's soon to be soul diva teaming up with legendary producer/arranger H.B. Barnum to deliver a killer 11-track LP! From the opening notes of "You're Gonna Miss Me", to the final fading chimes of "The Last Day of Summer", Spanky Wilson's beautiful voice is always on full display. Despite the fullness of her voice, there's a surprising tenderness - undercutting soulful funky numbers with an element of emotionality unlike anything her peers would ever put out. As Spanky's voice soars, her backing band, at times as sparse as a single piano, and at times as full as a big band, is always tight, giving Spanky plenty of room to shine while showing off their own immense talents. Don't miss the album that started it all for legendary soul diva Spanky Wilson, now available on limited edition vinyl with a special Japanese Obi-strip!
