Review

• A sorrowful, introspective ballad that is bathed in Southern and Deep mannerisms, characteristics and atmosphere. The declamatory vocal style with emotional reserves being brought into full play when needed, together with the counter-balance of the Memphis brass and piano weaving away in the background, make this a love-declaration to remember. (From the liner notes of the Complete Goldwax Singles CD by Dave Rudin)
