Labelle – Moon Shadow

The album “Moon Shadow” by LaBelle was originally released in 1972. It was the group’s second studio album, showcasing a mix of soul, funk, rock, and gospel elements. Produced by Vicki Wickham & Jack Adams, the album marked a transition for the group as they began to experiment with a more diverse and edgier sound, laying the groundwork for their later success. The title track, “Moon Shadow,” is a cover of the song by Cat Stevens and highlights LaBelle’s vocal harmonies and powerful delivery. Though not a major commercial success upon release, the album is regarded as a critical step in the evolution of their iconic sound, leading up to their breakthrough with the album “Nightbirds”, with the #1 hitsingle “Lady Marmalade“, in 1974.
