Ottilie Patterson had been a celebrated jazz and blues singer since the 1950s, but enormously expanded her repertoire with this July 1969 release. Taking in a range of songs ancient and modern, set to meticulous orchestral arrangements by Richard Hill, it touches on folk, funk, pop and more and adds up to a powerful and moving statement of her esoteric personality. It has long-awaited first reissue here, together with detailed background notes, rare images and a repro promo card.
