Annette Snell sent me the shivers just with the music kicking in and then goose pimples with her voice on 'I think...' Truly wonderful. Typing this while the YT clip tune is still playing on first play. Soon purchase for sure. Thanks. Tim

Agree totally, the first couple of seconds also remind of Phillip Mitchell's ''Just The Beginning " which is not surprising given the writing credits 🙂

Been some superb releases of late and these two deliver in bucket loads, two fabulous double siders.

Just reread the the updated notes on the Annette Snell release , and to be honest I have a big lump in my throat and a tear in my eye , what a sad story , and listening to " I think " wow,,,

 Very sad.  I do hope they have all the tracks from the sessions and the Lp is not lost!

I read somewhere that the master tapes were with Annette when she died in the plane crash. Great to have a couple of tracks from the MS sessions. But 40+ years in the can?

She was a fabulous singer. Who knows what she might have recorded.

It was just a rumor. Interviews with the studio staff confirmed they were still at Fame because the recordings were unfinished.
