"Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" (also called "Long Cool Woman" or "Long Cool Woman (in a Black Dress)") is a song written by Allan Clarke, Roger Cook, and Roger Greenaway and performed by the British pop group The Hollies. Originally appearing on the album Distant Light, it was released as a single by Epic Records on 17 May 1972 in the United States and in July 1972 on Parlophone in the United Kingdom.

Background & Recording

On the day "Long Cool Woman" was recorded at AIR Studios, the group's producer, Ron Richards, was ill and, as a result, the song was produced by the group. The song is different from most Hollies' songs in that there are no three-part vocal harmonies, and the song features guitar work by Allan Clarke. Upon his return, Ron Richards mixed the recording.[1]
According to Clarke, the song was written "in about five minutes". When the song made its mark in America, Clarke had already left the band; but, Clarke feels that "it wasn't unfortunate", since he had written the song.
