As 1978 drew to a close, an exciting young artist with a lilting, mellifluous
voice burst onto the British music scene,as her single, 'Walk Away', made its
swift journey to the top of the nation's reggae charts

and on the live scene stretched back years.In time, her hit record, produced by the
UK's premier reggae producer, Dennis 'Blackbeard' Bovell, wouldbecome a staple of
the lovers rock sound and when, over the months that immediately followed its
release, anumber of similarly impressive singles further demonstrated the extent of
her talent.This expanded version of Marie's Love Affair - her one and only album to
date- presents her entire Trojan output along with a furthertwo Dennis Bovell-
produced tracks, released shortly before and after her all- too- brief spell with the
company.This long overdue deluxe version is now available as limited edition of 750
