I was a fan of Patrice Rushen first through her hit records “Forget me Knots” & “You Remind Me” but later learned that she was originally a jazz musician and had several releases on the Prestige label as a bandleader and also played on many sessions including records with Donald Byrd, Lee Ritenour, Bennie Maupin + more.

Tracklist:

Patrice Rusen - Before the Dawn (Prestige) 1974

Gentle Thoughts - Feel Like Makin' Love
