Little Esther Phillips - Am I That Easy To Forget? 1950-1962 (2013)

Little Esther (Phillips) was certainly one of the greatest female vocalists in R&B, with a hit parade career that stretched from 1950, encompassing soul music in the '60s and disco in the '70s, and somewhere in between she built an enviable reputation as a jazz singer too. Includes her 1962 hit version of "Release Me" which was later a hit for Englebert Humperdink. Features wonderful vocal backings from, Johnny Otis, The Robins and The Dominoes.
