Totally Táta is an R&B studio album by Táta Vega. It is her second solo album and was released on Motown's Tamla label in 1977. Andrew Hamilton, in his four star review in the All Music Guide stated that "Totally Táta is a marvelous production by Winston Monseque." Of the nine songs on the album, Hamilton singled out the track, "Come in Heaven (Earth is Calling)." "It's surprising that the song -- religious with a secular mask -- has not been re-recorded by any of the new wave of contemporary gospel artists."[2]
