Roberta Flack - Killing Me Softly / 45RPM 2LP Analogue Productions

Flack's voice is powerful, deep and dignified! Where some singers mistake passion for frenzy, Flack is confident, regal and serene – intense, profound, but restrained in her own way.

The title track from this masterful eight-track album became her second number-one hit and quickly established her as a major R&B performer of her generation.

Both the media and the public embraced the artist's fifth album: the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) initially awarded “Killing Me Softly” gold status and then double

platinum in 2006! It was nominated for a Grammy Award for Album of the Year, but lost out to Stevie Wonder's album “Innervisions”. The title track was released as a single, topped the

Billboard Hot 100 for a long time and won the 1974 Grammy Award for Single of the Year.

The luxurious 180-gram reissue from Analogue Productions celebrates the 75th anniversary of Atlantic Records with a true audiophile gem: “Killing Me Softly” is now released as a double

LP (Quality Record Pressings, cut at 45 RPM) and comes in an elaborately designed, tip-on old style gatefold double pocket jacket by Stoughton Printing – a must-have for every vinyl collection.
