Roburt Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Due out in the new year ............... https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Atlantic-Recordings-Bettye-Swann/dp/tracks/B00GJ7CSB2/ref=dp_tracks_all_1#disc_1 I wonder if track 16 is her take on the Isley's Motown anthem. If so, it could be interesting.
Jez Jones Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) https://www.soulmusic.com/index.asp?S=3&T=36&ART=245 looks like its a 'downtempo' version.......nonetheless...its still mighty soulful....1973 version... Edited November 11, 2013 by jez jones 1
Roburt Posted November 11, 2013 Author Posted November 11, 2013 So it is a version of the Isley's classic given a Bettye / Southern Soul type edge ...... I like it. 1
John Reed Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 I can't see what company its from, so i'm assuming its Rhino?
Roburt Posted November 11, 2013 Author Posted November 11, 2013 Here's the details ......... Release: January 7, 2014 ..... Label: Real Gone Music
John Reed Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Track 11....................superb.! I've always been surprised this hasn't really picked up on this earlier (yes I know people have played it....). I think it's a better song and probably rarer than KMLG, although it's never (previously) commanded a high price. I assume its going to be the 3min version rather than that too overlong remix. 1
Mike Lofthouse Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Wow - at long last!!! Why she was never worthy of an album on Atlantic at the time I'll never know! I have had three playlists on my itunes for some time now called 'The Complete Atlantic Recordings of'- Bettye, Sam Dees and the Soul Brothers Six. Only need the SB6 now. Glad to see the the two duets with Dees included - sadly missing from his recent CD offering. Mike
