First Take

by Roberta Flack

First Take cover art

Anchored by the devastating, timeless emotional weight of 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face', Roberta Flack's debut is a stunningly mature triumph. 'First Take' is wonderfully warm and intensely passionate, matching deeply sentimental, highly sensual vocal jazz phrasing with remarkably bittersweet, exquisitely paced progressive soul.
