    • 1. The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face

    This exceptional release brings together two of Marcia Griffiths’ most remarkable recordings. Both tracks originally appeared on her acclaimed debut solo album Sweet and Nice, produced by Lloyd Charmers and released on Trojan Records in 1974. These two gorgeous tracks are extremely popular today as highlighted by the hundreds of thousands views on Youtube but incredibly, this is the very first time these two gems are issued on a 7" single!
