Still Caught Up returned listeners to the torrid backbiting and constant
recriminations of Millie Jacksons blockbuster Caught Up, and though it didnt
compare favorably, it was easily good enough to make it better than her average
full-length. Though not live, it has a stagey sound, with frequent monologues,
nice testifying backup vocals, an odd breakout of audience applause, and the
kind of loose-limbed horn section heard during Elvis Las Vegas appearances.
Jackson sounds resigned at the beginning (Making the Best of a Bad Situation),
but by the end of side one, shes getting just as unhinged as on Caught Up (The
Memory of a Wife) and talking just as tough (Tell Her Its Over). It must have
grown difficult to select appropriate material for another record of this kind,
but she closes it out in style with Mac Davis I Still Love You (You Still Love
Me).
