Possessing the type of voice that proudly shows its roots which began singing gospel in her families group at age 6, by the time Linda cut this record at age 23 she was a well seasoned vocalist that gives a breathtaking performance on this record. Sadly, Linda was diagnosed with diabetes and died between afternoon and evening shows at New York's Apollo when she was only 27 (1972).
from 1967...

Excellent record. What a tragedy that she died so young. I also note that it was produced by Richard Tee (of 'Walking Up A One Way Street' fame).
