Originally released on the Coloursound library label in 1972, the album is a dazzling showcase of Moore’s extraordinary voice used as an instrument. Rather than traditional songs with lyrics, the record is built around layered vocal textures, wordless harmonies and playful vocalisations, creating lush, psychedelic soundscapes that blend jazz, pop, easy listening and avant-garde studio experimentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album moves effortlessly between groovy rhythmic pieces and dreamy atmospheric passages, often supported by tight studio musicians and crisp early-70s production. Tracks like “Steam Heat” and “Work Out” have become cult favourites among DJs and collectors for their funky breaks and cinematic flair, while other pieces drift into ethereal choir-like arrangements that feel almost otherworldly. Over the years Vocal Shades And Tones has become one of the most sought-after British library records, revered for its inventive vocal arrangements and its influence on sampling culture and rare-groove DJs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReviews\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“An extraordinary vocal experiment that turns the human voice into a full orchestral palette.” The Wire\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“A cult library classic — lush, playful and endlessly inventive.” Record Collector\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Barbara Moore’s voice becomes rhythm, melody and texture all at once.” AllMusic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“One of the most imaginative British library records ever recorded.” Dusty Groove Guide\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003c!-- Genres --\u003e\n    \n      \u003cp\u003eGenre: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eJazz\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Barbara Moore\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Be With Records, Music De Wolfe\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_uk\"\u003eUK\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eJazz\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/score\"\u003eScore\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/theme\"\u003eTheme\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vocal\"\u003eVocal\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Hot+Heels\"\u003eHot Heels\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+It's+Gospel\"\u003eIt'S Gospel\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Steam+Heat\"\u003eSteam Heat\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Fly+Away\"\u003eFly Away\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+His+Name+Was\"\u003eHis Name Was\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA6 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Swing+Over\"\u003eSwing Over\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA7 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Touch+Of+Warmth\"\u003eTouch Of Warmth\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Voice+Force+Nine\"\u003eVoice Force Nine\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Very+Fine+Fellow\"\u003eVery Fine Fellow\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Barbara+Moore+Shades+-+Tones\"\u003eShades -
