The 1978 album "Modern Priscilla" saw Black returning to the UK charts after a period of relative inactivity. The album features a more contemporary pop and soul sound than her earlier work.
- "Modern Priscilla" was Cilla Black's last album released on the Parlophone UK label. The album reached number 90 on the UK Albums Chart. The title track "Modern Priscilla" was a lesser-known track compared to her 1960s hits.
- The album was produced by David Mackay, who also worked with artists like Sailor and Dusty Springfield. It was released in June 1978, towards the end of Black's contract with Parlophone. The album failed to chart significantly in the UK, marking a dip in her commercial success during that decade.
- Black had previously hosted the popular television shows "Surprise Surprise" and "Blind Date," which would become more prominent in the following decade. This album represented an attempt to update her sound for the late 1970s market. She had previously had success with songs like "Anyone Who Had a Heart" and "You're My World".
