Laura Lee – Are You Doing Me Wrong

Biography
A tough ’60s soul singer with a salty sense of humor (aimed mostly at the men in her life), Laura Lee recorded at Rick Hall’s FAME studio in Muscle Shoals for the Chess label, and later for Hot Wax. In songs like “Wanted: Lover, No Experience Necessary,” “A Man with Some Backbone,” and the anthemic “Women’s Love Rights,” the female experience was brazenly discussed, debated, kicked around, and, finally, celebrated.
Her music laid the groundwork for artists like Millie Jackson and Denise LaSalle to expand this proud, sexy, brash-talking corner of “women’s” soul music. Lee had a country-soul, romantic side as well, as shown on her splended version of the Penn-Oldham classsic “Uptight Good Man.” Lee is a fine, versatile, saucy singer whose work deserves more attention.
