Description:

[Malaco 1000 Best Selection] Inheriting the tradition of Stax Records and High Records, Malaco Records, the famous label loved by soul fans all over the world as the savior of Southern Soul in the 80's, has released 30 classic titles (+3 compilations) for only 1,000 yen! Southern Soul singer Dennis LaSalle, known as the "Queen of the Blues," had 14 chart hits in the 1970s, including "Trapped by a Thing Called Love" (1971), which reached No. 1 on the R&B charts and immediately became a million-seller. This is the first album released by Dennis LaSalle after he moved to Malaco, which was at the height of its popularity at the time, and it is also considered to be her best work. The heartwarming "Lady in the Street," which permeates the listener's ears with Denise's character from the moment the first verse begins, is simply superb. There are also some great blues numbers that are typical of Malaco, such as Dennis' version of "Down Home Blues," written by George Jackson and made a big hit by Z.Z. Hill, which features X-rated lines like Millie Jackson's.This is one of the most famous and popular albums of Dennis' long career and countless discographies. Original jacket.
