Rita Coolige inspired numerous songs, cowrote songs, many of which are uncredited, and she sang backup for Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker, and Stills, all before finding fame as a solo artist with such hits as ''(Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher and Higher.'' Following her story from Lafayette, Tennessee to becoming one of the most sought after rock vocalists in LA in the 1970s, Delta Lady chronicles Rita Coolidge's fascinating journey throughout the '60s and '70s pop/rock universe. A muse to some of the twentieth century's most influential rock musicians, she broke hearts, and broke up bands. Throughout it all, her strength, resilience, and inner and outer beauty -- along with her strong sense of heritage and devotion to her family -- helped her to not only survive, but thrive.
