From liner notes:

"Gloria Ann Taylor, American singer and songwriter (sometimes arranger) from Selma, a small town of about 15,000 souls in Dallas County, Alabama.

Soon she moves with her family in Minnesota where she grows up forming even musically.

Extremely devoted person, she begins at a very young age to sing gospel, a music genre that she never leave for life.

She was the first singer to open the way for female a cappella musical groups, to help form a rock band, the "Sweet Honey in the Rock" as well she contributed to the success of the singer Odetta.

Just at that time - we are in the early Seventies - she married the composer, arranger and conductor Walter Whisenhunt, with whom she moved to Los Angeles where she wrote and performed several soul and funk songs that still today are much in demand by enthusiasts, fan and collectors worldwide.

Her artistic career was very intense but unfortunately so very short as well as her marriage with W. Whisenhunt:

A couple of great artists often forgotten by the media and even more neglected by the major record companies.
