Joining Elektra after three albums with jazz label Prestige, Patrice had shown prodigious talent at an early age and had first broken through after winning a competition to perform at the Monterrey Jazz Festival of 1972. By the time of the recordings on this collection, she had become a prolific and in-demand session musician and arranger on the West coast, appearing on over 80 recordings for other artists. She joined the Elektra/Asylum roster in 1978 as they launched a pop/jazz division alongside visionaries like Donald Byrd and Grover Washington, Jr. 'The idea was to create music that was good for commercial radio/R&B', Patrice explains. 'We were all making sophisticated dance music, essentially'.
