Twisting the Knife

Living Blues
[T]he album sounds much like its predecessors. The well-paced playlist kicks off with a hard-cooking "I Had a Talk with My Baby," the song's obvious gospel antecedents proving to be perfectly suited to Pride's soulful delivery.... "She Spread Her Wings" repeats the minor-key motif and boasts a gorgeous horn arrangement from Bill Samuel.... This soul/blues set has it all--a masterful singer, good songs, and even a real band.

Lou Pride.......2000-07-15

This is a fine RnB/Blues release by Lou Pride. He has a big but smooth and soulful voice, great and often very witty lyrics ("esp "Revenge") and the horn arrangements are marvelous!

Great Vocals, great songs!.......1999-06-10

Now this guy is a throw back to all the great blues singers. I hear a little of Bobby Blue Bland with a hint of Sam Moore. His roots are strong and his delivery effective. They should really re-issue this CD. The songs and arrangements are classic Stax/volt and the vocal is strong and direct.
