2. Of Course I Do

3. You'll Be Crying

4. Miracles

5. I'm In A Crying Mood

6. Mine All Mine

7. Harbor Lights

8. I'll Never Be Free

9. Romance In The Dark

10. Everybody's Somebody's Fool

11. How Long Will It Be

12. Fool That I Am

The niece of legendary blues singer Memphis Minnie, Baker was blessed with a powerful, soul-tinged voice that she put to use since her teens under the stage name 'Miss Sharecropper' and which eventually earned her a contract with Atlantic in 1953.

Inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 1990, Lavern was one of the most successful R&B artists of her era.
