Irresistible was the first and only solo album of Tammi Terrell, which was released in January 1969 by Tamla (Motown). Due to complications with a brain tumor in 1968 and eventual death in March 1970, Terrell did not record a subsequent solo album. Singles (shown with an astrisk) from this album were dubbed with vocals from Terrell's frequent singing partner Marvin Gaye for the duet's next and final album, Easy.
"Come On and See Me" was the only song from this album which was not overdubbed and was actually re-recorded with Marvin Gaye as a seperate single for Easy. "This Old Heart of Mine (is Weak for You)" is a remake of the 1966 Isley Brothers' hit by the same name. "All I Do is Think About You" was remade almost twenty-one years later by fellow Motown singer Stevie Wonder on his Hotter than July album.
Thirty years later, Terrell's singles from Irresistable and other unreleased songs were re-released on compact disc entitled Tammi Terrell: The Essential Collection by Motown in 2001.
