Denise LaSalle's journey took her from rural Mississippi to an
unquestioned reign as the queen of soul-blues. From her early
R&B classics to bold and bawdy demands for satisfaction,
LaSalle updated the classic blueswoman's stance of powerful
independence while her earthy lyrics about relationships connected
with generations of female fans. Off-stage, she enjoyed ongoing
success as a record label owner, entrepreneur, and genre-crossing
songwriter.As honest and no-nonsense as the artist herself, Always
the Queen is LaSalle's in-her-own-words story of a lifetime in
music. Moving to Chicago as a teen, LaSalle launched a career in
gospel and blues that eventually led to the chart-topping 1971
smash "Trapped by a Thing Called Love" and a string of R&B
hits. She reinvented herself as a soul-blues artist as tastes
changed and became a headliner on the revitalized southern soul
circuit and at festivals nationwide and overseas. Revered for a
tireless dedication to her music and fans, LaSalle continued to
tour and record until shortly before her death.
