Lynda Layne was a teenage pop sensation from Kitchener, Ontario, who rose to national prominence in the 1960s with standout performances on CBC’s Music Hop and a series of emotive 45s. Crowned RPM’s “Most Promising Female Vocalist” twice—first in 1964, then again in 1967—she evolved from girl-group sweetness to confident, soulful pop. This collection traces her arc from early ballads to her sweeping 1971 cover of the Rolling Stones’ “Out of Time.” A radiant voice from Canada’s golden pop era, rediscovered.
