      Thelma Houston was the impressive MoWest 1972 debut by the talented songstress whose first album, the 1969 Jim Webb-produced "Sunshower” LP was critically acclaimed and established Thelma as an important then-new artist.

      Long-awaited reissue, considered a Motown musical treasure - has long been in demand by Motown and soul music lovers everywhere: with first class arrangements by Gene Page, Artie Butler and Michael O’Martian and primary production by Joe Porter, the album included excellent material - with songs penned by Patti Dahlstrom and the team of Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil among others alongside Thelma’s soulful cover of Janis Joplin’s hit ‘Me And Bobby McGee.’ In the UK, the original US album was released with a slightly different track list and five additional cuts including songs by the Motown team of Gloria Jones & Pam Sawyer as well as Thelma’s fiery take on soul singer Paul Kelly’s ‘Stealing In The Name Of The Lord.’
