Take it from the Top is a sequel to Let Me Tell You What Mama Said. I journeyed through her mothers life from WWII when she first came to North Philly, met my father, bought their first home and began their life together with music. Take it From the Top continues that journey. It is just one of many stories from the 1960s of this incredible decade filled with memories from the era, memories of my parents and their musical career. Take it From the Top is where mamas story continues and my story begins.
