Digitally remastered archive release from the legendary vocalist. PP became one of the iconic faces of the 60's. These recording sessions bring back happy memories for PP, with Bill Shepherd (Bee Gees, Gene Vincent) creating the beautiful arrangements we hear on the record today. "We recorded around ten tracks, eight of which made it onto The Turning Tide". Sadly, due to Bee Gee's commitments only half the record was able to be completed, and PP was heartbroken, as she had put her heart and soul into the recordings. At a lot loss on how to go forward it was the idea of her manager Robert Stigwood to pair PP up with Eric Clapton. Eric called in his Delaney and Bonnie band who later became Derek and The Dominos, along with Rita Coolidge and PP's dear friend soul singer Doris Troy. The end result was phenomenal, they recorded songs written by Steve Winwood, Van Morrison and Jagger & Richards. These recordings were left sitting on shelves for many years due to industry politics, and still after all these years, PP could never fathom the thought that nobody would be able to hear them. It became her mission to let these recordings see the light of day, and not let this incredible piece of music history stay buried. Steve Cradock (Ocean Colour Scene) began mixing the tracks, calling upon his old friend Paul Weller, who gladly allowed them to use his Black Barn Studio, and also his long time engineer, Charles Rees. The results were remarkable; after all these years, pieces of history were brought back to life again.

Arriving in England as an Ikette with the Ike & Tina review in the mid-60's, PP was spotted by Mick Jagger who immediately got her signed to Immediate Records. Several huge hits followed, 'First Cut is The Deepest', 'Angel Of The Morning', and so on… PP became one of the iconic faces of the 60's. It was around 1968 PP started recording an album with Barry Gibb and cut many tracks before he returned to the Bee Gees and Eric Clapton took over and recorded two more songs. Eric called in his Delaney and Bonnie band who later became Derek and The Dominos, along with Rita Coolidge and soul singer Doris Troy. The end result was phenomenal, they recorded songs written by Steve Winwood, Van Morrison and Jagger, Richards. These recordings were left sitting on shelves for many years due to industry politics. It became her mission to let these recordings see the light of day, and not let this incredible piece of music history stay buried. Now these recordings are being released for the first time!
