Deep Listening Day #36 — Bettye LaVette: Things Have Changed (2018). who knew we needed an album of soul covers of mostly obscure Bob Dylan songs primarily from the 80s and later? I certainly didn't. this one feels like keeper.

For this week's #MusicWomenWednesday I've chosen an old favorite by Bettye Lavette:

Bettye Lavette: Let Me Down Easy (1965)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7RKRkkoGlU

This fabulous clip is a live performance from the ABC TV show "Shindig!", originally aired on June 9, 1965. She was 19 at the time.

In 2004, I had a chance to see her sing this song (and quite a few others) at a Finnish blues festival. She was very good. I think I may have also had a brief chat with Heikki Suosalo, who did an interview with her, published here:

"Myslela jsem si, že umřu na mizině a neznámá," říká se svým charakteristickým skřehotáním výtečná americká zpěvačka Bettye LaVette. "Teď si aspoň myslím, že umřu jen na mizině!"

NEW-TO-ME MUSIC ACTS
Mastodon Post

Some of the new-to-me acts I really like are

<> Rachel Croft, a YouTube suggestion that worked out really well
<> Southern Avenue: I heard a track on WRSI and bought it right away
<> The Staves: it seems to me I have bought every Staves release except for one and I'll probably go back for it
<> The Wolff Sisters (with Dick Curless's grandson on drums): a new favorite out of Boston
<> The Hillbilly Moon Explosion when the woman sings. Since this hillbilly outfit is Zurich-based, the vocalist could be singing in a third language.

Twisted Pine has a new album released today titled "Love Your Mind."

https://twisted-pine.bandcamp.com/album/love-your-mind

The featured track, "Goosebump Feeling" is quite good; but the following track, "Chanel Perfume" ft. Ali McGuirk is even better.

I've also gone back to the great Bettye LaVette.
