Foxy Lady

Review by Sid Emerson

Foxy Lady, released in 1972, is Cher's eighth studio album, produced primarily by Snuff Garrett with Sonny Bono as a co-producer on some tracks. Following the success of her previous album, Foxy Lady presents a mix of original compositions and covers, including the lead single "Living in a House Divided." The album reflects the turbulence in her professional relationships during this period, particularly between Garrett and Bono. Critically, the album received positive reviews, but its commercial performance was modest compared to Cher's earlier successes.
