NIGHTLINES

From Sugarhill Records. "These says Candi Staton sings only gospel music, having turned her back on secular music completely, but for a decade from 1969 she was rarely absent from the soul charts. This CD features her last album of non-religious material cut for Sugarhill label in 1981. And while it only yielded one hit, this was far less to do with the quality of the set than with the changes in musical fashion. Quite simply this was one of soul music's dying commercial breaths."
