Barbara Keith's solo debut is sometimes confused with her 1972 Reprise album in discographies, since both releases were self-titled. This Verve 1969 release, though, is an entirely different record. It's respectable, slightly above-average late-'60s singer/songwriter music, with a strong country-rock flavor (with frequent steel guitar) on many though not all of the tracks. The best part of the LP is Barbara Keith's voice, which has a slight shake that is reminiscent of Marianne Faithfull's timbre.
