REISSUES NEWS COLUMN BACK TO BLUE-EYED SOUL is a retrospective of the career of singer/songwriter and falsetto fave David Lasley, who has written hits for artists such as Whitney Houston, Boz Scaggs, Crystal Gayle, Natalie Cole, Patti LaBelle, Anita Baker, Aretha Franklin, Oak Ridge Boys, Dionne Warwick, and Herb Alpert, among others, and has worked with James Taylor for close to 25 years.
This is just the icing on a career whose associations either live or in the studio read like a diverse pop and jazz trivia encyclopedia: Bonnie Raitt, Anita Baker, Mavis Staples, Joe Sample, Sergio Mendes, Morris Day, Phil Upchurch, Fine Young Cannibals, Steve Miller Band, GoGos, Paul Abdul, Boz Scaggs, The Jets, Jermaine Jackson, Rhythm Syndicate, Chaka Khan, Robben Ford, Howard Hewett, Larry Graham, and Windham Hill labelmates Tuck and Patti.
His writing talents can be heard on “You Bring Me Joy” by Anita Baker and on tracks by Patti LaBelle, Aretha Franklin and Boz Scaggs, to name just a few… The alternately lilting and passionate "What’s It Gonna Take" is the perfect showcase for Lasley’s soaring falsetto.
