Pressure Cookin' is the third album by American singing trio Labelle, released in August 1973.
This release was their first and only for RCA Records, and was critically raved due to the songs that songwriter and member Nona Hendryx composed.
Among notable songs were "Something in the Air"/"The Revolution Will Not Be Televised", in which all three bandmates, Patti LaBelle, Nona Hendryx and Sarah Dash each shared a rap, the biographical "(Can I Speak to You Before You Go to) Hollywood", which was inspired by the events following former member Cindy Birdsong ditching the group during its Blue Belles tenure to join The Supremes and which featured all three members having notable lead vocal parts, mainly from Dash, while Hendryx sang in the beginning and Patti LaBelle sang the following verses, the soulful ballad "Last Dance" and the bossa nova-inspired "Let Me See You in the Light".
Despite RCA releasing the Stevie Wonder composition, "Open Up Your Heart", the album failed to become a success.
Wonder was uncredited due to contractual reasons - the production credit was listed as "Vicki Wickham and friend".
