LaSalle, Denise
On The Loose
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed 1973 Original With Cut Corner. "This Follow-Up To Lasalle's Breakthrough Album, Trapped By A Thing Called Love, Carries On With Another Solid Round Of Southern-Fried Blues And Soul. Atop Arranger Bowlegs Miller's Groove-Centric Charts, La Salle Particularly Shines On Her Own "Man Size Job," Bill Withers' "Lean On Me," And The Civil Rights Anthem "There Ain't Enough Hate Around (To Make Me Turn Around)." Mostly, Though, Lasalle Evokes Early Influences Like Ruth Brown And Such Contemporaries As Millie Jackson And Betty Wright While Plying Her Gospel-Infused, Blues-Grit Way Through Fine Cheatin' Songs Like "Breaking Up Somebody's Home" And "Your Man & Your Best Friend."-AMG
