Released: 1974 Label: Reprise Records. It was Lewis' utter refusal to rest easy in either soul or pop sounds that made her material so special, resulting in an album that surely packs as many moods as it has tracks".

Born in London, Linda Lewis made her stage debut as a child, performing alongside her mother and father in the clubs near her East End home. In 1961, again encouraged by her parents, Lewis landed a bit part in the swinging film A Taste of Honey; another small role found her playing a star struck fan in the Beatles' 1965 film Help. 1974 then brought Lewis' final Reprise album, Fathoms Deep, followed by the compilation Heart Strings, an excellent collection that remained unsurpassed until 2002 brought the CD collection Reach for the Truth: The Best of the Reprise Years. Moving to Bell, the punningly titled "Cordon Blues" single appeared in 1974, before Lewis was transferred to the sibling Arista label in 1975, releasing her triumphant Not a Little Girl Anymore LP, featuring contributions from Lowell George, Allen Toussaint, and the Tower of Power horn section, among others.
