Review: Janett Silvera's When I Need You is a remarkable 1977 album that originally came on Federal. It's a vocal-laced and mellow reggae delight that features covers of classics by Patti Austin, Albert Hammond, Bob Marley, and more. The album also includes backing vocals by the legendary Marcia Griffiths. From the opening moments of the super smooth 'Oh If I Should Lose Your Love' to the more upbeat and funk fuelled workout that is 'Dancing To My Own Heartbeart' via the sentimental and super deep soul of 'When I Need You' this is an escapist classic.
