Ready To Deal is Renee's 3rd solo album, this time credited to the Renee Geyer Band as by this stage she had formed her own touring outfit, again surrounded by some of the country's best musicians. However unlike her 2 previous albums where Renee stamped the contemporary Soul/R & B catalogue and overseas hits as her own , original material predominated here. It proved that Renee had truly arrived.
