No way!!! I have been waiting for this forever!! Tawatha has one of the best voices in R&B.

I don't know if anyone here is familiar with Bluebird Records but they are a UK based company that specializes in "forgotten" R&B titles. They are known for their unprofessional vinyl transfer rips (Check out the chop-job they did to Melba Moore's "Read My Lips"/"Never Say Never"). However, I have been assured by the person who mastered the Tawatha CD that, this time, it is indeed from the master tapes.

If you're in the States, you might want 2 wait and order them from Ebay. This company sells their cds on ebay and you don't have to pay for the astronomical price for shipping. I ordered Attitude's cd from ebay from them for $10 vs the $30 from their site.

okay, listening to the samples on the website, I think that guy lied to me. This CD sounds like a vinyl rip.

How does this compare to Mtume's Juicy Fruit album? If it comes close, I'll definitely look to pick this up.
