About this album

Fool That I Am is a strong Rita Coolidge compilation that showcases her smooth crossover pop at its most commercially successful. Issued in 1980, it gathers the songs that made her one of the era’s most recognisable adult-pop voices, including the title track, the hit duet “(Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher and Higher” style warmth of her best-known singles, and the enduring chart favourite “We’re All Alone” era balladry through to “I’d Rather Leave While I’m In Love” and “Fever”. Coolidge’s supple phrasing and easy emotional control give the set real cohesion, while the selection underlines her importance as a singer who bridged pop, soul and soft rock with rare grace.
