Songstress Freda Payne has enjoyed a lengthy career in the world of music and while probably best known for her early `70s hits, "Band Of Gold" and "Bring The Boys Home," the native Detroit woman has been a staple performer since her early teens.

After her success working with Holland-Dozier-Holland for Invictus Records, Freda recorded two albums for ABC Records before signing with Capitol Records in 1977.

Freda's Capitol debut album 'Stares and Whispers' featured production work from Frank Wilson (known for his hitmaking records with Eddie Kendricks, The Supremes, and Lenny Williams) and Tony Camillo (known for hits with Gladys Knight & The Pips among others). The producers assembled an all-star cast of musicians and singers for the L.A. sessions including Greg Phillinganes, Jack Ashford and Angela Winbush.

Much anticipated by Freda's many fans worldwide, the 1977 set spawned a major dance hit ("Love Magnet") and according to Freda, remains one of her personal favourite albums of the many she's recorded since 1963.

Bonus tracks on this expanded edition include two rare `B' sides and a track with then-labelmates, Tavares.
