Betty Mabry Davis RIP 10 Feb 2022

[Tomangoes]

Just read:

Singer, songwriter, producer and style icon Betty Davis, whose unfiltered, in-your-face 1970s funk songs including “He Was a Big Freak,” “Game Is My Middle Name” and “Nasty Gal” conveyed a brash power that broke gender barriers and defied male-dominated sexual mores, died on Wednesday. She was 77.

Davis’ death, of natural causes, was announced by her longtime reissue label, Light in the Attic Records."

A very under rated artist. The BBC ran a very interesting documentary on Betty's life late last year. Might still be available to stream.

Just Sunshine funk sister!  They said you were Different!

I hope she got some well-deserved, re-newed recognition through the Light In The Attic releases/ re-issues.

RIP Betty.
