Elayne is not an unknown. She already released an LP album in Nashville in 1986. 2 of the best songs of the first LP are included in this LP but the remainder of 10 tracks were recorded in 1989 exclusively for Lucky Lady Records. All songs were written by Elayne and recorded in Nashville. With personnel names like Buddy Spicher (fiddle), Jim Baker (steel guitar and Dobro), Hargus "Pig" Robbins (piano) you can expect a perfect nowadays sound which is kept pretty much "country"...but what about the singer? She's got a warm, dark voice with a lot of good country feeling. She does not imitate anyone but if she had recorded back in the 1960's she could have been as successful as a Jean Shepard or a Norma Jean...perhaps even more than that since she does an excellent job as a songwriter, too!
