Bettye LaVette-"I got my own hell to raise"


Anyone heard this record? I heard Bettye LaVette yesterday on "World Cafe" and I was shocked! I didn't know anyone sang real Soul Music anymore. If you haven't heard of her and you like real soulful music, you owe it to yourself to check it out.

Enjoy,

I agree. BUT, the title song itself is a Fiona Apple song called "Sleep to Dream" (I'm sure she'd be pleased to know she writes SOUL music) from her first album. IMHO, the original is both more musically satisfying and at least as good a recording.
