Synopsis

Product Description
They called her The First Lady Of Immediate and she was hailed as the darling of the London music scene in the Swinging Sixties. Pat P.P. Arnold first arrived in the UK with the Ike & Tina Turner Revue in 1966 and the young American backing singer so enjoyed her visit that she decided to stay on and launch a solo career. She was signed to Andrew Oldham s Immediate Records and the result was a series of superb recordings, now presented on this Repertoire CD compilation. P.P. Arnold is blessed with a powerful and soulful voice, well suited to interpreting dramatic songs. A great example is her treatment of The First Cut Is The Deepest by Cat Stevens - among eight tracks culled from the A and B-sides of singles released during 1967. A further three items are taken from her debut album The First Lady Of Immediate . During this productive period, fellow Immediate artists the Small Faces and Twice As Much supplied much suitable material and Pat wrote some original songs as well as delving into the songbooks of the Beatles and the Beach Boys for Eleanor Rigby and God Only Knows . The remaining eight tracks are taken from her second album Kafunta , released in 1968. Includes 20 essential tracks, featuring a selection from her Immediate label recordings, including cuts from albums and singles.
