The songs on the project include “Night Closing In,” “Still Too Soon To Know,” “Sweet Freedom,” “Who Under Heaven,” among others.
Love’s illustrious career in the music industry spans over five decades, and she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2011 by Bette Midler. Love began her career as a member of The Blossoms, a local trio who provided background vocals for such esteemed artists as Sam Cooke and Bobbie Day.
She is best known for her classic holiday tune, “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home),” which she would perform on “Late Night With David Letterman” as an annual tradition.
