Loleatta Holloway: Queen Of The Night (Salsoul SSLP 1509)

THE LONG awaited second Gold Mind album from Loleatta and this time the lady is caught up with a myriad of production units. The whole of side one was cut in Philly — with Norman Harris handling the three uptempo, disco-aimed cuts. The best of them is probably 'Catch Me On The Rebound' but, in all honesty, none of the three sounds like a real winner and they come as a disappointment to me. I have to confess, Loleatta's ballad duet with Bunny Sigler on 'Only You' is already proving to be a winning single and it makes up side one.
