Originally issued in 1988, \u003cem\u003eNo Way Out\u003c\/em\u003e blends polished contemporary soul, funk, dance grooves and powerful balladry, showcasing Wilde as a confident and expressive vocalist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eDee Dee Wilde was already part of a musical family before launching her solo career, with her brother Eugene Wilde finding success as an R\u0026amp;B singer during the 1980s. After performing with family groups under a number of names, Dee Dee secured her own deal with 4th \u0026amp; Broadway and released “I Found You” as her first single in 1988. The track, along with “Lap Of Luxury,” helped establish her in the UK and paved the way for \u003cem\u003eNo Way Out\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe album is a strong example of the polished 1980s soul and contemporary R\u0026amp;B sound, moving between romantic slow jams, sophisticated funk and dance-oriented grooves. Wilde's vocal style has been compared with powerhouse soul singers such as Chaka Khan alongside the deeper, smoother tones of Evelyn “Champagne” King, giving \u003cem\u003eNo Way Out\u003c\/em\u003e plenty of character across its ten tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe title track “No Way Out” sits alongside the previously successful “I Found You” and “Lap Of Luxury,” while Wilde also turns her attention to Sade's “Smooth Operator” and the soul classic “I'll Be Good To You.” The combination of original material and carefully chosen covers gives the album a distinctly late-'80s R\u0026amp;B feel while highlighting Wilde's versatility as a singer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eOriginally released as a 4th \u0026amp; Broadway vinyl LP (BRLP 527), \u003cem\u003eNo Way Out\u003c\/em\u003e is an appealing addition to collections focused on 1980s soul, funk, contemporary R\u0026amp;B, 4th \u0026amp; Broadway releases and female soul vocalists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLove'll Do Anything – 5:00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRound And Round – 4:54\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo Way Out – 4:31\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI Found You – 3:47\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSince I Feel For You – 5:32\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide B\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLap Of Luxury – 3:45\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHold Me – 5:43\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSmooth Operator – 5:14\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI Miss You – 4:28\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI'll Be Good To You – 4:43\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IWe1NXqU108?si=HFmYThGp0fmspyOX\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"4th \u0026 Broadway Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55186639585622,"sku":"BRLP 527","price":4.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/1013\/7686\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_12c3d558-2c68-46df-ab14-97de83ce6b1d.jpg?v=1788368486","url":"https:\/\/www.sounds-grounds.co.uk\/products\/dee-dee-wilde-no-way-out","provider":"Sounds + Grounds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
