A hell of a great record from Ruby Andrews – a Chicago soul singer who started out sweet, but comes on hard and heavy on this righteous classic from the start of the 70s! The record's got a badass vibe you never would have expected from Andrews a few years before – with tremendous vocals, and these arrangements that are right on the money – and which pack a solid funky punch into nearly every tune! Brothers Of Soul provide the great backings – but Ruby's the clear star of the show, and works here in a deep soul style that blows us away every time we hear the record – and we've been listening to this one for more than a few decades. Wonderful all the way through – and with titles that include the funky classic "You Made A Believer Out Of Me", plus "Good N Plenty", "My Love Is Comin Down", "You Ole Boo Boo You", and "Overdose Of Love".

Chicago soul singer Ruby Andrews scored her first hit in 1967 with "Casonova (Your Playing Days Are Over)" which rose to #9 on the US R&B charts. In 1972 she released the full length album “Black Ruby.” Cut in Memphis, Tennessee, Ruby’s second album for the Zodiac label produced the hit “You Made A Believer Out Of Me,” but another cut, "Just Lovin' You” has gone on to achieve cult status among the Northern Soul crowd in Europe. Finally available in the digital domain, the original album is presented here, newly remastered.
