Run Out Groove
BETTYE LAVETTE – The 1972 Muscle Shoals Sessions LP
$44.95
Limited to 2310 copies.
Includes two bonus tracks.
180 gram vinyl housed in Stoughton tip-on numbered sleeve.
Highly recommended.
Bettye Lavette may not be a household name like Aretha or Otis, but her talent as a soul singer is just as mercurial. She has cultivated a 55+ year career that led to three Grammy nominations, a W.C. Handy Award for Comeback of the Year, 2008's Best Contemporary Female Blues Singer, all of which tell the story of perseverance personified. The music is from her 1972 sessions at Muscle Shoals Sound, backed by the famous house band of Barry Beckett, Jimmy Johnson, David Hood and Roger Hawkins. These tracks were never released at the time of recording and this brand new collection includes all of her Muscle Shoals recordings plus 2 bonus tracks recorded the same year in Detroit, all making their debut on vinyl after 46 years. With new artwork, liner notes by Billy Vera and Run Out Groove's typical deluxe packaging, this limited ROG release should not be missed.
