Title: Criminally Overlooked Soul Singer!!!
Review: STAX must really have been in disarray for Ruby Johnson not to have hit it big, because she is every bit as great as Aretha Franklin, Etta James & Irma Thomas -- and this CD proves it! There have got to be about ten GREAT songs on it starting with I'll Run Your Hurt Away all the way to the amazing Weak Spot. Ruby can really belt it out as she does on What More Can A Woman Do, but the slow burners best showcase her gritty vocal style. Songs like Left Over Love, When My Love Comes Down and I'd Better Check On Myself are positively dripping with soul! And that killer organ in the background is enough to put anyone in a stone cold Memphis groove.
