Rozetta JOHNSON  A Woman's Way: The Complete Rozetta Johnson 1963-1975 

The 60s and 70s recordings of a supremely talented southern soul singer.

Birmingham, Alabama singer Roszetta Johnson created marvellous southern soul, particularly when collaborating with songwriter Sam Dees, also from that city. (Note the spelling of her name; her records were usually issued as by Rozetta or occasionally Rosetta.)

I am enjoying this, very varied across dancers in Northern Soul, Crossover to early Modern Soul plus some slower deep, Southern style songs.  Beyond the few songs compiled already this is a good release in its own right.
