Editor's note

Louise, the London band behind Stuck In The Middle With You

A 1970s pop-rock group whose biggest hit found new life in Reservoir Dogs.

For a quick frame, listen to 'Stuck In The Middle With You' and maybe 'Undivided Love' from their top songs. That gives you the hit and a sense of their other work.

Louise matters because 'Stuck In The Middle With You' became one of those songs that outlived the band. Its mix of a catchy rhythm and bittersweet lyrics gave them an international hit in 1973, and Quentin Tarantino's use of it in Reservoir Dogs in 1992 introduced it to a whole new audience. Other songs like 'In Walked Love' and 'Reminds Me Of You' showed their range across pop and rock.

Louise formed in London in 1971 and put out four albums between 1972 and 1975, starting with their self-titled debut and ending with 'Careless Love'. The lineup shifted over those years, and they dealt with internal conflicts and some public controversies that complicated their career.

Archive material and source history

Louise formed in London in 1971 with Mick Jackson on vocals and guitar, Kenny Hyslop on bass, Tony Cox on keyboards, Alan Cowdery on drums, and Billy Rankin on saxophone. Their first single 'Love' came out in 1972, but it was 'Stuck In The Middle With You' the following year that really connected. That song's mix of a catchy rhythm and bittersweet lyrics gave them an international hit.

They put out four albums between 1972 and 1975, starting with their self-titled debut and ending with 'Careless Love'. Other songs like 'In Walked Love' and 'Reminds Me Of You' showed their range across pop and rock. The band's lineup shifted over those years, and they dealt with internal conflicts and some public controversies that complicated their career.

'Stuck In The Middle With You' found a second life in 1992 when Quentin Tarantino used it in his film Reservoir Dogs. That exposure introduced the song to a new generation, keeping it in circulation long after the band had stopped recording together.
