This was Margie Joseph’s third album for Atlantic. Like the first two, Arif Mardin was the producer, arranger and conductor, but it was to be the last time that Arif Mardin was Margie’s producer. The album yielded two minor hits, these being Words are impossible and Stay still. Covers of songs by Carole King (Believe in humanity, After all this time) and Bill Withers (The same love that made me laugh)sit comfortably among originals including two that Margie co-wrote with Arif (Sign of the times, Stay still). Margie Joseph was an excellent performer, but that big hit eluded her, so she never made the big time. Nevertheless, she made some excellent music of which this album is typical.
