image from ebay.comLYNNE HAMILTON "on the inside" 1980. #91Aust. vinyl.
its amazing what you can find out when you know nothing about an artist and need to write something.
who is Lynne Hamilton? you may ask, well, some of you may know her from her days as part of The Caravelles in the mid 1960s, or at least know of them,The Caravelles had a few decent hits in the '60s, the biggest of which was "you dont have to be a baby to cry" which was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic in 1963 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zw_9xU8ATBI audio,#3US, #6UK, #48Aust.
in 1971, Lynne moved to Queensland,Australia and steadily built up her career via club and caberet shows, then in 1979 she was asked to perform the theme song for the Aussie womens prison drama series "prisoner"(retitled "cell block H" in the UK), that song, "on the inside", became a huge hit in Aust and UK. after that Lynne started her own Evangelical Church in her home State of QLD, where she still delivers sermons to this day, she is still recording, but only Gospel albums.
this album isnt too bad, theres touches of pop "on my toes again", a song that sounds very similar to Captain and tenille in "every song for you", "getting into love" could pass for an early 70s Supremes track, a couple of country crossover tracks, a Beatles cover, and of course the hit single "on the inside".
