专辑介绍

by Alex Henderson

Soul fans who don't have a taste for off-color humor have often argued that Millie Jackson should stay away from the racy stuff. They insist that a soulstress as talented as Jackson doesn't need to be raunchy, claiming that her sexually explicit diatribes are an unnecessary distraction. But here's the thing: those diatribes are genuinely funny -- at times, she's downright hilarious. Jackson would still be a great singer even without the R-rated and X-rated monologues, but those monologues are a nice bonus. Not without its share of raunchy humor, this 1977 LP is unlikely to get Dr. Laura's stamp of approval any time soon. But those who don't mind off-color humor will find Feelin' Bitchy to be a first-rate soul album. Jackson provides some hilarious diatribes on &You Created a Monster& and the bluesy &All the Way Lover& (which lambastes women who prefer soap operas over their husbands), and she fares equally well on less explicit material like Hot's &Angel in Your Arms& and Merle Haggard's &If You're Not Back in Love by Monday& (which was a number two country hit for Haggard and a number five R&B hit for Jackson). While Hot's original version of &Angel in Your Arms& was slick R&B/pop and crossed over to adult contemporary audiences, Jackson's gritty remake is hardcore soul. From the explicit to the not so explicit, Feelin' Bitchy is among Jackson's finest albums.
