Album Notes & Community Reviews

Unusual for female artists of the era, Lynn was a left-handed guitarist who wrote much of her own material[cite: 1]. 'Here Is Barbara Lynn' pairs her smoky, slightly melancholic voice and distinctive guitar playing with polished Southern soul arrangements[cite: 1]. Though it failed to match the commercial heights of her earlier hits, the album remains a critically revered showcase of her unique, blues-inflected R&B style[cite: 1].
