same story here..i paid for a 45 that i never rcvd..despite assurances that he ''resent it''..hes got bad feedback..in my opinion a scammer..buyer beware..and good luck trying to trace him..his ebay account now deleted..
yes its her..and similar story i think to Tobi Lark/legend..she knew the song..and think she knew it had been released..('66?)..but had prob been recorded earlier and sat on the shelf..
many thanks..i met her in a similar bar..in East LA about 15 years ago..we chatted about 'what good am i ' etc..heres the weird thing..she said she only did two recording sessions.. one for Modern & the other ?? both in the late 50's..she insisted never in the 60's..!! I always thought that 'What good' had an earlier R&B sound to it..she would'nt let me take a photo even when her manager asked her..but asked if i could get a hold of the musette 45 'to put on the juke box..'..
Venetta Fields also sang background vocals on the Rolling Stones 'Exile on Main St' most notably 'Sweet Black Angel' 'Shine a light' & 'Let it loose'....
..i was in Home depot (US answer to B&Q) in San Antonio..in Jan this year..looking for some dome head screws..on came Voodoo workin, Charles Sheffield..over the speakers..i assume it was an excello comp...
find it hard to believe you never saw a girl acrobatics..i was there like you from 72-- onwards..Sue nfrom Notts did splits, backdrops and handstand/flips..once from off the stage...
just after Billy Prophet had been pressed i bought an original at the record bar..along with Landapples..milton wright..jackie edwards..put em in me bag with leather jacket..stashed under table..found the bag later..
i had a boot of this in early 70's on black SPQR..terrible sound quality. Was it booted again on a goldy yellow label (as opposed to gold orig) with scratched matrix..sound quality pretty good..or would this be another original or legal reissue?..
