I was told not too long ago that Labelle’s Lady Marmalade was the #1 single on Billboard’s chart during the week of my birth.
A little research on my part confirmed that fact and explained why I gravitate towards Labelle the way I do.
Nightbirds and Phoenix are easy enough finds.
What I aimed for was their album with the cover version of Cat Stevens’ Moonshadow. I first heard their rendition on a Mastercuts compilation and was blown away. That discovery was again made during my initial days of branching out from the more obvious and accessible funk and soul tracks.
To my knowledge, their version of Moonshadow can be found on their album from 1972. I found that album reissue a few years ago. It was the most expensive of all my Labelle albums
