Gwendolyn Collins released her debut album "Storytelling Side I" in 2014 and "Storytelling Side II" followed in 2016, both were hits on the UK Soul chart.
This release selects tracks from both albums along with four singles
"Hold Me" Feat. IISMA (2018), "Luv You Like" (2017), "Share" with Ollie Wright (2013) and "Luv The Way Ya" (2018) along with a remix of "The Simple Things" by MFASOL for an album titled "Favorites - Storytelling Side I & II" released on 19 Aug 2021.
It kicks off quite nicely with a modern take on Barry White's "I'm Gonna
Love You Just A Little More Baby" (a nice version done by Kellee Patterson
on Shady Brook in 1976) retitled "I'm Gonna Luv You". It's a good mix of tunes from her two albums and a selection of
singles, all with a soulful jazz flava.
I'm not quite sure why the album has been released now except that she
has released her first new single since 2018 ("Roll With Me") yesterday (25 Aug 2021), so perhaps it's to win over new
listeners on the back of the single? It only appears to be available via
BandCamp for a snip at just $7 (that's only £5.11 for fourteen
tracks)!
