First-ever 7CD deluxe box set by iconic song stylist Nancy Wilson recorded for Capitol Records between 1970-1980. Eleven of the 12 original albums included here were previously re-issued by SoulMusic Records between 2011-2013, a number of which have been out of print for some time and are being made available again in this luxury set as a result of demand for the late singer's enduring recordings. A stunning collection of 124 tracks showcase the legendary vocalist's artistry through jazz, pop, soul and adult contemporary genres and includes production by Gamble & Huff, Gene Page, Eugene McDaniels and Clarence McDonald among others. Special quotes from legacy artists Dionne Warwick, Johnny Mathis and contemporary soul hitmaker Kenny Lattimore are included in the luxury booklet with stellar artwork by Paul Bevoir which features individual essays on each of the 12 albums by writers Joe Marchese, A, Scott Galloway, Kevin Goins and David Nathan, with quotes from Nancy Wilson, Thom Bell, Gene Page and others. Nancy Wilson's breakthrough US Top 10 R&B hit, 'You're As Right As Rain' penned by Thom Bell & Linda Creed is among the ten charted singles here including her exquisite readings of James Taylor's 'Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight' and Charlene's 'I've Never Been To Me', along with standout album tracks such as 'The Greatest Performance Of My Life' and 'All In Love Is Fair' which were staples in Nancy's live repertoire for many years. Produced by SoulMusic Records' founder David Nathan who has masterminded numerous re-issues of Nancy's recorded legacy with associate reissue production from Joe Marchese of The Second Disc and superb mastering from Nick Robbins, this pot-pourri of spectacular music provides a dazzling display of Nancy Wilson's unique and distinctive interpretive abilities beyond categorization and genre.
