In 1970, Carla Thomas went to American Sound Studio in Memphis to record a new album for Stax Records. Two of the songs were released as a single, but the complete album was shelved and was not officially released until 2013 as part of a compilation. This reissue marks the album's vinyl debut after 55 years and includes songs written by James Taylor, The Bee Gees, Goffin and King, and more.
Pressed on translucent light blue vinyl, exclusively for Record Store Day 2025.
