Description
Stephanie Mills was a native New Yorker having been born and
brought up in the borough of Brooklyn.
For The First Time saw Mills team up with legendary song
writing, arranging and production duo Burt Bacharach and Hal
David, ironically for the last time they would work on the same
project together.
Given the medium in which she came to
prominence the classic standards of Bacharach and David were
perfectly suited to Mills theatrical voice as she performs the
collection with effortless ease, running the full gamut of
emotions alongside the understated and beautifully
orchestrated contemporary arrangements. Mills talents come to
the fore on tracks such as I Took My Strength From You, No
One Remembers My Name and the single This Empty Place.
Alongside For The First Time Mills 1982 album Love Has
Lifted Me, (recordings from later Motown sessions that were
held back) appears as the bonus tracks on this release.
