1. Reportedly the rarest, most difficult to find LP in the famous UK VERTIGO (swirl) label catalog. * Has a history of sales for 1k to 2K+ netting auction figures over 4K. Certainly, this is an original press, and NOT a reissue, the first and best we've had in many years

1. One of the best singers you're likely come across. She's actually flat-out amazing and this album and is definitely worthy for the high rating it has, generally tending towards progressive blues rock styles.   
   
2. There's the major highlight to be found in the lumbering heavy acid rock title track "Pieces Of Me," which remains a very good listen spotlighting  Linda's wailing wide-range vocal abilities
3. 
   
4. It's not so surprising when one considers she'd been a member of the acclaimed rock group Affinity just before this album, and the somewhat jazz-rock-flavored "Black Crow" reflects this background and the fact she prepared a lot of this material collaborating with Karl Jenkins of the
5. Soft Machine fame. 
6. 
   
7. "Morning for One" is another standout track, a gorgeous keys melodic with singing that evokes Dusty Springfield. Anyone with a taste for the music from the early 70's era who enjoys a stunning singer in progressive format isn't going to be disappointed with this interesting album - and even getting better with repeat plays !
