This 20 track collection sees Vivian Reed’s eponymous 1968 album reissued alongside a handful of non-album, 7” singe tracks and B-sides that she cut for Epic. Trained at the prestigious Julliard School Of Music Reed’s style bears the hallmarks of a strict training: a clear and clean singing style that fits well with some of the many varied styles on show here. ‘I Wanna Be Free’ is a jazz tinged soul dancer, ‘Walk On My Side’ is a good big city soul shaker while ‘the Shape Of Things To Come’ is a pacey groover. Her version of ‘I Feel The Earth Move’ allows her big, full voice to shine while the pop-tinged Northern dancer ‘Baby, Baby’ will appeal to those into big, lushly produced stompers.
