Ruth Waters

This album is one of the true hidden gems of 1980s funk-an overlooked treasure from Ruth "Silky" Waters, an artist whose vocal depth and soulfulness were long overdue for the spotlight. Known for her remarkable versatility across jazz, blues, R&B, and gospel, Waters brings her vocal prowess to Out in the Open with unmatched flair. And has crafted an album that sits just around the corner, hiding quietly amongst the debris in the pantheon of '80s soul and disco.
