DMOO 050LP
|
Reissue, originally released in 1963. Texan rhythm and blues icon Barbara Lynn made an incredible impact in 1962 with the chart-topping debut single, "You'll Lose A Good Thing," which has since been covered by Aretha Franklin, Freddy Fender, and countless others. A southpaw guitarist who wrote her own material, debut LP You'll Lose A Good Thing captured our heroine at her best, the soulful smoky voice a striking contrast to the blues base of her backing musicians (including Dr John on keyboards). Containing the follow-up hits "Second Fiddle Girl" and "Letter To Mommy And Daddy" as well as the cherished title track, it's a winner from start to finish. Clear vinyl.

SOUL7 028EP

Another couple of gems from the Barbara Lynn repertoire. Side A is a huge modern soul spin with dense production on the intro and a chorus that's broken up by a sparse open verse. Originals are difficult to locate and reach upwards of $500. Mastered straight from the tapes. Side B features cracking drums, guitar and a killer vocal. This alternate, taken right from the master tapes, is even more direct than the original and sounds as if it was recorded yesterday.
