The Rose Battiste Story

The flip side was previously released on Ric-Tic.

Her next release on Golden World, Sweetheart Darling, has a Diana Ross sound and even though Rose likes the lyrics, it's her least favorite recording. 

Golden World had become too Motown-esque for Berry Gordy's liking; he bought Mr. Ed Wingate's company in September of 1966 and the take-over left most of his artists searching for a new recording home.
