Passage: Over time, fidelity, dynamic and noise levels improved to the point that it was harder to tell the difference between a live performance in the studio and the recorded version. This was especially true after the invention of the variable reluctance magnetic pickup cartridge by General Electric in the 1940s when high quality cuts were played on well-designed audio systems. The Capehart radio/phonographs of the era with large diameter electrodynamic loudspeakers, though not ideal, demonstrated this quite well with "home recordings" readily available in the music stores for the public to buy.

The follow-up to the "Old Flame" album, the 1987 release "Emotion", failed to continue Newton's hit streak when its first single "First Time Caller" fell short of the C&W Top 20. Released as the second single from the "Emotion" album in December 1987, "Tell Me True" returned Newton to the C&W Top Ten with a number 8 peak affording Newton her final appearance in the C&W Top 30.
