(1976)Ready to Deal is Renée Geyer's 3rd solo album, this time credited to the "Renée 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 Geyer stamped the contemporary Soul/R&B catalogue and overseas hits as her own, original material predominated here. It proved that Geyer had truly arrived.
