Eloise Laws is no stranger to music having hailed from a musical family comprising of brothers Hubert and Ronnie, and sister Debra who recorded a brilliant album for Electra in the 80's. This album concentrates on her career at Invictus in the 70's and opens up with the much played and collectable northern favourite 'Love Factory' which is still played today. This CD gives the listener a mixture of up tempo tunes and gentle ballads all delivered in the usual Invictus manner. For a change in tempo have a listen at the beautiful 'Stay With Me'  and not a finer soulful performance will you hear anywhere as Eloise sounds similar to Freda Payne and tell the story of love and breaking up with her man.

The to tapping and finger popping track ' Tighten Him Up' could almost have been recorded as a jam and whilst not strong enough for single release shows the lady can tackle any type of song without becoming typecast. Fast becoming my favourite tune from this CD is the uptempo 'You Got Me Loving You Again' which has al the hallmarks of the Detroit Emeralds' stomper 'Turn On lady'
on it's opening intro. After which the song settles down to a nice groove and no doubt will grace many a dance floor alongside any club classic from that era.

In '76' the UK saw the release of the disco dancer 'Love Goes Deeper Than That' which is by no means the best cut on the CD despite the 12" version being included as a bonus track. The additional 12" version is also included of 'Put A Little Love In To It'
Eloise sounds just wonderful on 'Ain't It Good Feeling Good' a gentle shuffler with a gorgeous piano led backing making it sound so much like a Phyllis Hyman song. You'll enjoy without question. The gentle 'Camouflage' with it's piano led cocktail lounge styled intro reminds the listener so much of the intro to Aretha's 'Angel' - if that itself is a recommendation then buy it just for this.
