She rose to prominence in the late 1960s and 1970s by blending jazz, blues and R\u0026amp;B influences into a distinctive interpretive style. Her phrasing and timing allow her to convey strong emotion across both ballads and more upbeat material. Shaw collaborated with notable arrangers and producers and established a reputation as a compelling recording artist and live performer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Spice Of Life highlights Shaw's range and interpretive power with arrangements by Richard Evans and Charles Stepney. The collection includes material originally recorded in 1969 and demonstrates the marriage of sophisticated orchestration and soulful grooves that complement her voice. This Verve reissue was prepared as a high-resolution 96 kHz, 24-bit digital transfer and presents signature tracks such as 'Woman of the Ghetto' and a stirring version of 'California Soul.' The release showcases Shaw's commanding lead vocals against rich instrumental backings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.\u003cbr\u003eWoman of the Ghetto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2.\u003cbr\u003eCall It Stormy Monday\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3.\u003cbr\u003eWhere Can I Go?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4.\u003cbr\u003eI'm Satisfied\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e5.\u003cbr\u003eI Wish I Knew (How It Would Feel To Be Free)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6.\u003cbr\u003eLiberation Conversation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7.\u003cbr\u003eCalifornia Soul\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e8.\u003cbr\u003eGo Away, Little Boy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e9.\u003cbr\u003eLooking Thru The Eyes Of Love\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e10.\u003cbr\u003eAnyone Can Move A Mountain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor CD Player [Ex-Library Edition (May contain stickers\/markings)]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Verve Records \/ The Verve Music Group","offers":[{"title":"Used In Pamphlet","offer_id":51403190665494,"sku":"133677","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/0377\/1710\/files\/2026610145933930scan.jpg?v=1781133003","url":"https:\/\/www.neverdiemedia.com\/products\/marlena-shaw-the-spice-of-life","provider":"NeverDieMedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
