Album Notes
Personnel: Tamiya Lynn (vocals).Liner Note Author: Tony Rounce.Recording information: A&R Studios, New York, NY; Atlantic South-Criteria Studios, Miami, FL; Malaco Studios, Jackson, MS.Arranger: Ray Ellis.Lynn attempts to do what Margie Joseph did with "Stop in the Name of Love": tack a sassy monologue on the front of a Supremes hit and see if it flies. It didn't. Though it's a nice effort, it didn't cause any rumblings like Joseph's Fred Briggs production did. The album is consistently good, however, and one wonders why there isn't a CD compilation of Tamiya Lynn's recordings. Bert Berns' "I'm Gonna Run Away" is a tearjerker that's a big favorite in England with the Northern soul crowd; she gets funky on a Major Lance remake, "Ain't No Soul (Left In These Old Shoes)," and does a splendid "Mojo Hanna," originally done by Henry Lumpkin on Motown; Marvin Gaye also recorded the song about the New Orleans' roots woman, but the Ideals' rendition on Cortland Records is the best version for your money. ~ Andrew Hamilton

Editorial Reviews
4 stars out of 5 - [T]ruly inspired....The husky voiced country soul singer uses both plain talking monologues and impeccably chosen covers to bolster her gripping story...
Mojo

4 stars out of 5 -- A deep-soul treasure....Fired by the uptempo strut of a woman on the comeback trail.
