"She's Back!!! Legendary vocalist Fontella Bass, best known for her classic anthem "Rescue Me," is ready to explode back onto the music scene with this album. "Travellin" is a creative soul grabbing mix of R&B, Jazz, Gospel and Blues tracks--providing something for everyone! As an added treat, this album also marks the return of tremendously talented vocal sensation David Peaston! Listen for David's vocal stylings on the sure hit "Special Lady," co-written by Chicago songwriting talent Curtis Fondren (who also played drums on the album). Add this CD to your collection today!"

"From the opening cut this cd is and excellent display of the St. Louis sound. Jazz, blues, gospel, and R&B. Ptah Williams is a a pianist deserving much wider recogniton,The Bosman Twins can blow their horns with the best, Fontella's vocal stylings are a mixture of all the greatones but surely unique to her, David Peaston has a range from here to eternity. The cd is a St. Louis production that should be played arond the world by those serious about 'soul' music."
