Condition: VG++ (Plays Awesome!)
Description: Recorded in Los Angeles with producer Michael Omartian, this 1984 Geffen-era set blends pop with gospel touches. Label execs chose a Drifters cover, There Goes My Baby, as the first single, despite Summer pushing for Oh Billy Please. The closer, Forgive Me, later earned her a Grammy for Best Inspirational Performance. A snapshot of Summer navigating industry pressure while broadening beyond disco into synth-leaning arrangements.
