Another great selection from Melissa Manchester's 2nd album released to be issued in 1976: 'Help is on the way'. Her cover of Donald Fagen and Walter Becker's ''Dirty Work' pre-empts both the Max Merritt and Pointer Sisters' versions of 1979. (Check out my clips). First found on Steely Dan's 1972 LP 'Can't buy a thrill', Melissa's interpretation  brings such light and shade to the classic pop tune. And vocal power!
