Betty Davis - They Say I'm Different (Full Album) HQ

In the early '70s, Betty Mabry was a unique figure in the landscape of "black music." She was not just a singer; she was also a songwriter, arranger, and producer, choosing, planning, and deciding everything independently and doing so in an extremely innovative way.

This is her most important album, a work that reshuffles the cards on the table, blending the lessons of Jimi Hendrix & Sly Stone.

She revolutionized funk just as Captain Beefheart did with blues.

Comparisons can only be made with men since, in that historical period, women were often relegated to the roles of background singers, vocalists, or at most, singer-songwriters; she, however, has a profile of an absolute protagonist.

Although she is commonly associated with being the wife of Miles Davis, when it comes to funk, it is Miles Dewey Davis III who should be remembered as Betty's husband.

In any case, more than half a century after its release, this album remains as exhilarating as it was in '74, not just a piece of cake!
 
She - Bad Girl

SHE- "OUTTA REACH" (1970)

Every once in a while, we go back to the decade to celebrate some who were forgotten along the way...

First “Id,” then “Hairem,” finally “She”...

Sacramento 1964... after school... but especially after a Beach Boys concert, seventeen-year-old Nancy decided to form an all-girl rock band. She quickly recruited her thirteen-year-old sister... and they carried on until 1971.

Commercial luck: 0, but many shows between Sacramento and San Francisco...

Rough and psychedelic garage, as it should be...

There’s (only) a nice compilation from the turn of the millennium...
