Carol Williams - More - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Safe Distance - the new album from singer, songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist, Janet Simpson, isn't a concept record, but it does take a journey. From Nashville to Reno (well, almost), to running away from demons, retreating from your troubles, hiding in plain sight, and returning liberated - ready to skip away again while your past looks on with a dropped jaw. But nothing here rambles aimlessly Simpson's characters long to get free (and succeed) while navigating it all with confident purpose. They are reflective but never middling. They hurt but move to healing - or take the time to care for others. And they don't shy away for a good time - even if they're having too much of one.

One of the original pioneering divas of the disco movement, singer Carol Douglas broke out of the gate in 1974 with the stunning InchDoctor's Orders,Inch reaching the #2 position on Billboard's disco chart. Douglas made her album debut in 1975 with the Carol Douglas Album followed in 1976 by Midnight Love Affair and in 1977 by Full Bloom. To prove she was no one-hit wonder, Douglas reached the coveted #1 slot on the Billboard Disco chart with the single, InchMidnight Love Affair,Inch in 1976. Douglas soon became a favorite on the club scene and released two more solid albums (1978's InchBurnin'Inch and 1979's InchCome Into My LifeInch) to end the decade. Presented here is the Disco diva's highly influential 1975 debut, InchDoctor's Orders.Inch All selections newly re-mastered.

Vinyl LP pressing. 2020 from the singer/songwriter. Produced by Alex Newport, Yellow Coat is a masterpiece of heartbreak, equal parts lost Sixties AM radio hits, folk-pop beauty and dark night of the soul music. Yellow Coat is the product of Costa penning letters to himself about the end of a relationship that had lasted almost a decade.
