Winner

A very nice clean album housed in a smart  gloss gatefold cover.

Winner is Renée Geyer's seventh solo album and her second to be recorded in the USA. Motown's Frank Wilson again manned the console; however, this time The Renée Geyer Band provided the rhythm section. They were once again supported by some of the very best US session players. Winner contains two of Geyer's best ever performances in "Bad Side of the Blues" and the jazzy "I Miss You", on which she proved she could scat with the best. However, Geyer was neither happy with the album nor the promotion that US Polydor were providing and negotiated a release from her contract. She then brought the tapes home from Australia to be remixed but she still calls this, rather unfairly, "a bit of a loser". This album and Renée Live, are the only two albums in her entire catalogue not to be released on CD.
