This was Phyllis St James (Yvonne Williams) only album under that name. Phyllis St. James is an accomplished singer, songwriter and percussionist now based in Los Angeles. After a very acrimonious divorece from Jerry (Swamp Dogg) Williams she changed her professional name. She had penned songs for a wide range of artists during the '80's. These include Norman Connors on his 'Take It To The Limit' album, Jean Carne on her 'Mystic Stranger' outing along with 'Bet Your Lucky Star', Rodney Franklin on his 'You'll Never Know' album, 'Parkay Man', 'Endless Flight' and 'Return To The Source', and The Jones Girls on their 'The World Will Sing Our Song' set. As a solo singer Phyllis signed to Motown in 1984 where she recorded this one album. Phyllis has, additionally, sung background vocals for various artists including Rodney Franklin, singing the lead on 'Windy City', Randy Crawford, Teddy Pendergrass, Gerald Albright and Atlantic Starr.She has also sung with several rock artists including Pink Floyd (on their 1987 album 'A Momentary Lapse Of Reason') and Paul Young (on his 'Other Voices' set) as well as writing films scores and songs for TV & Movies. One very talented lady indeed and she could bang out a tune or two!

I don't know this one. Thanx for posting.
Although concerning Tamla Motown, I dropped out around the years 75-76, I'm going to ask you anyway, just to see if I'm going to like it (I'm not too disco). Thanks AMM.
