Say to hear. Loved Can’t fake the feeling. I can’t remember the name of her daughter who also recorded.

Really sorry to hear that. RIP, Geraldine.

BTW, I wasn't aware that she had recorded an entire album. I listened to a bit of each track and really like what I heard. That's for providing the info., Cincinnati_Kid.

Detroit through and through, she will be missed, great record on Bombay from 1964 and produced by Mike Hanks

OK record. Don't understand the [A BIG LIE] subtitle that's attached to the title??

As far as I remember Geraldine was a Chicago resident, who was taken by her Chicago Manager/producer, Bob Catron, to Detroit, to work with Mike Hanks and sometimes Dave Hamilton, to record her Katron, Checker, Bombay, and USA records, as arrangers and co-producer, and songwriters. Here's a Mary Wells like song by Geraldine produced by Catron and Hanks for Bob's Katron Records:

Here's the flip side of her Katron record, on the Checker lease pick-up nationally distributed pressing:

Here's another that was placed with Chicago's USA Records:
