Originally a 9:02 album track on Tata Vega's sophomore album "Totally Tata" 1977, "Come In Heaven (Earth Is Calling)" was always really two tracks rolled into one. The first half a deep soul
ballad and the second half takes it into Disco territory. When David
Nathan's Soul Music Records reissued the album on CD in 2011 they had the
foresight to break it into two bonus tracks. So here's the first half.
We'll also add the full length album track as a couple of minutes have been
lost between the two edits.
Carmen Rosa 'Tata' Vega released four solo albums for Motown's Tamla
imprint between 1977-80 and then had a break and came back a gospel artist
but also performed backing vocals fro many artist.
In the late 60s she performed in a Broadway production of 'Hair' in L.A.
and then joined a group called Pollution of which Dobie Gray was a member.
Whilst performing they were spotted by Berry Gordy who signed them and
released an album on them as Earthquire on Natural Resources in 1972. The
album failed commercially and the group were dropped but Tata
retained.
