Walk Under Ladders by Joan Armatrading
Walk Under Ladders is an album by Joan Armatrading, released in 1981. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 2 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “The Weakness in Me”, on 2 lists with a best position of #353.
Walk Under Ladders, Joan Armatrading's seventh studio album, came out on A&M on 4 September 1981, with Steve Lillywhite in the producer's chair. Five years on from the self-titled record and Show Some Emotion that first made her a commercial force, the English singer-songwriter and guitarist sounds tougher and more up to date here, her songs cut lean and her voice as commanding as ever.
It climbed to No. 6 in Britain, went gold there for more than 100,000 copies sold, and reached No. 16 in Australia. The singles just missed the Top 40, "I'm Lucky" stalling at No. 46 and "No Love" at No. 50, and the record also carries "The Weakness in Me".
