I Need Your Love
Ella reminds me very much of Inez Foxx on this track. And there's nothing wrong with that by any means!
Autumn Leaves (French)
Ella is equally at home in French, but if like me you don't speak French the English version is available. It uses the same background.
Only You
Ella Woods studied Opera at the University of Southern California and an early collaboration was with The Platters for 5 years. Living in Southern California gave her the opportunity of meeting people like Elvis, Shirley Bassey and Michael Jackson and of working with Joe Sample and The Jazz Crusaders. She has formed her own band and toured extensively in the USA and Europe. On her father's death she recorded an album of Gospel. Very enthusiastic reception in Europe prompted an album with some French songs. She says these audiences do not hide their emotions! I have only recently discovered her through This Old Soul of Mine and knew at once on hearing this Platters hit that she is special.
