Love Is a Hurtin' Thing
by Gloria Ann Taylor
Compiling the incredibly rare, highly sought-after early 1970s singles of the Ohio-based vocalist, this release showcases her unique, intoxicating blend of gospel intensity and dark psychedelia. The tracks feature heavy, fuzz-pedal orchestration, atmospheric strings, and devastatingly emotional vocal deliveries that straddle the line between funk and deep soul. It successfully revived the career of a brilliant, fiercely independent artist who had long walked away from the industry.
