For the first time on one superb Double CD, Raven presents three classic 1970s albums by one of the finest American singers of the pop era RITA COOLIDGE. The Lady"s Not For Sale (1972), Fall Into Spring (1974) and It"s Only Love (1975) established her career and feature the pure sounds of laid-back country-rock and West Coast soft-rock mixed with a soulfulness that marks them as polished, quality productions. Raven has previously combined her two platinum-selling hit albums Anytime Anywhere (1977) and Love Me Again (1978) on a great value 2-for-1 release (RVCD-277) containing her biggest hits "Higher and Higher" and "We"re All Alone". Originally recorded for A&M Records, these three albums showcase the renowned Coolidge stamp of soulful warmth which is predominant on splendid covers of "Fever", "Bird on the Wire", "I"ll Be Your Baby Tonight", "Love Has No Pride", "Desperados Waiting for the Train" and "It"s Only Love". Produced by David Anderle and featuring crack session musicians (Booker T. Jones, Sammy Creason, Lee Sklar, Dean Parks, Jerry McGee, Al Perkins and her band the Dixie Flyers) plus stunning backing vocalists (Jennifer Warnes, Clydie King, Sherlie Matthews, Venetta Fields) these beautifully produced albums combine sophistication, flow and a sensual tone to make a completely satisfying whole. With superb quality audio, detailed liner notes and color booklet, this excellent release is a must for fans of sophisticated and soulful country-tinged pop.
