Sarah Dash (born August 18, 1945) is a singer and actress. Her first notable appearance on the music scene was as a member of Patti LaBelle & the Bluebelles. Dash has had a full career, moving from singer, to songwriter, session musician, sideman for famous bands that include LaBelle, The Rolling Stones, and Keith Richards.

Warm soul with a bit of pop – very much the sound that Sarah Dash had delivered strongly on her previous albums, and still served up here on her 3rd solo album "Close Enough", released in 1981 without too many commercial trappings! The album's definitely hook-heavy, but not nearly as much chart soul as some of Sarah's contemporaries – and the vocals definitely live up to that legacy that Dash brought her records after earlier work in Labelle – a richer soul current that really holds the album together. While there's not really any standout hits on the record, the overall sound is tight and right enough to work on most numbers – on titles that include "City Boy", "Somebody's Angel", "Only You Can Fill The Need", "Leaving Again", "Close Enough", and "PS I Love You".
