Originally one of George Clinton's Brides of Funkenstein, Val Young then joined the Gap Band, & was featured on the funk classic "Oops Upside Your Head". She recorded five albums with them before being spotted by, Rick James. Impressed as much by her striking physical appearance as by her musical talents, James promoted her as the 'Black Marilyn Monroe'. James produced this 1985 debut solo album. It includes the Top 30 R&B hits singles "If You Should Ever Be Lonely" & Seduction". 2007 first time on CD reissue.
