Some more monster sexy funk from Betty. Hard to believe this one was mothballed for 30 years! Here's a good little article interviewing her about how she got Miles Davis to meet Jimi Hendrix and how it affected Davis' compositions after: Madonna before Madonna: The woman who introduced Miles to Hendrix finally speaks: http://bit.ly/bn0O8Z and Miles Davis: The muse who changed him, and the heady Brew that rewrote jazz: http://bit.ly/9doKeH http://bit.ly/dqMM2J Betty Davis – Is It Love Or Desire Betty Davis was a musical maverick with vision. Image, substance, sex, and grit combined with a badass band that could deliver the funk bed backbone to the sultry music between the sheets. After cutting two notorious discs for the Just Sunshine label (Betty Davis and They Say I’m Different), and Nasty Gal for Island Records, Davis went to work on her most personal and expressive record yet. After capturing 10 hard-hitting tracks in 1976 at the remote Studio In The Country (Louisiana), a creative difference with her then label caused the platter to be unexpectedly shelved. Davis would cut one final album and soon retreat from the music business, completely disappearing from the public eye. Is It Love Or Desire is a little-known gem in the Davis catalogue. Mastered from the original tapes, and untouched for over 30 years, this release features detailed liner notes by Oliver Wang (Soul Sides, Betty Davis and They Say I’m Different re-issue contributor), the originally intended artwork housed in a lavishly packaged digipak, rare photos, archival material, and recent interviews with Davis and her skin-tight band Funk House. Never bootlegged, never released, never heard until now, the secret story of this lost album will finally enter the history books and cement this bold soul sisters contributions to music and popular culture. Its time to get down… Long live Betty Davis! - Light In The Attic mp3@320CBR Track List 01. Is It Love Or Desire [0:02:36.96] 02. It’s So Good [0:03:20.96] 03. Whorey Angel [0:05:02.45] 04.

ahhhhh ... but do you have the 4th? It was never released until last year! recorded in 76. 1976 - Is It Love Or Desire

With some incredible musicians backing her up too. I'd love to see Betty kick some current-day "divas" asses! She's so good and nasty I'll toss up her other stuff too if you don't have it.

mmmmmmmmdirtydirtyfunk http://bit.ly/bwPuIn Betty Davis – Betty Davis Betty Davis – Betty Davis (1973) There is one testimonial about Betty Davis that is universal: she was a woman ahead of her time. In our contemporary moment, this may not be as self-evident as it was thirty years ago – we live in an age that’s been profoundly changed by flamboyant flaunting of female sexuality: from Parlet to Madonna, Lil Kim to Kelis. Yet, back in 1973 when Betty Davis first showed up in her silver go-go boots, dazzling smile and towering Afro, who could you possibly have compared her to? Marva Whitney had the voice but not the independence. Labelle wouldn’t get sexy with their “Lady Marmalade†for another year while Millie Jackson wasn’t “Feelin’ Bitchy†until 1977. Even Tina Turner, the most obvious predecessor to Betty’s fierce style wasn’t completely out of Ike’s shadow until later in the decade. Ms. Davis’s unique story, still sadly mostly unknown, is unlike any other in popular music. Betty wrote the song “Uptown†for the Chambers Brothers before marrying Miles Davis in the late ‘60s, Betty’s impact on the immortal jazz trumpeter was tremendous. Her cutting-edge musical tastes and incomparable sense of style were too much for Miles to resist. A self-righteous 23-year old model, Betty conquered the man twice her age with a potent mixture of youth, beauty, and sex. Within a year, she had completely remade Miles in her own youthful image. As she poured herself into him, his playing grew younger, his outlook fresh. She ripped through his closets, tossing out the elegant suits he had worn for years. This was the late ’60s, revolution was in the air, and suits were the uniforms of the Establishment. The time had come to get hip, and Betty pointed the way, influencing him with psychedelic rock, and introducing him to Jimi Hendrix — personally inspiring the classic album ’Bitches Brew.’ The influence of Hendrix and especially Sly Stone on Miles Davis was obvious on the album Bitches Brew, which ushered in the era of jazz fusion. The origin of the album’s title is unknown, but some believe Miles was subtly paying tribute to the woman whose intersecting relationships helped spur the album’s genesis. In fact, it is said that he originally wanted to call the album Witches’ Brew — it was Betty who convinced him to change it. It is believed that Hendrix and Betty Davis had an affair that hastened the end of her marriage to Miles Davis, but Betty denies this. What’s more, Hendrix and Miles stayed close after the divorce, planning to record until Hendrix’s death. Her taste and style were cutting edge and her songwriting ability was way ahead of its time as well. Betty not only wrote every song she ever recorded and produced every album after her first, but the young woman penned the tunes that got The Commodores signed to Motown. The Detroit label soon came calling, pitching a Motown songwriting deal, which Betty turned down. Motown wanted to own everything. Heading to the UK, Marc Bolan of T. Rex urged the creative dynamo to start writing for herself. A common thread throughout Betty’s career would be her unbending Do-It-Yourself ethic, which made her quickly turn down anyone who didn’t fit with the vision. She would eventually say no to Eric Clapton as her album producer, seeing him as too banal. In 1973, Davis would finally kick off her cosmic career with an amazingly progressive hard funk and sweet soul self-titled debut. Davis showcased her fiercely unique talent and features such gems as “If I’m In Luck I Might Get Picked Up†and “Game Is My Middle Name.†The album Betty Davis was recorded with Sly & The Family Stone’s rhythm section, sharply produced by Sly Stone drummer Greg Errico (however this was to be the last album produced by anyone other than herself.), and featured backing vocals from Sylvester and the Pointer Sisters. Davis released two more studio albums, They Say I’m Different (gonna try and get Reza to give me his minty fresh copy, post that up soon…) and her major label debut on Island Records Nasty Gal . None of the three albums was a commercial success. Davis remained a cult figure as a singer, due in part to her open sexual attitude, which was controversial for the time. Some of her shows were boycotted and her songs were not played on the radio due to pressure by religious groups. However, with the passage of time her records have become highly regarded by collectors of soul and funk music and have been sampled by Ice Cube, Ludacris, Method Man, Redman, Godfather Don and Talib Kweli…just to name a few. - http://shelikes12inches.com/ mp3@320CBR Track List 1.

Interesting review comparing the last stereo remasters and the new mono ones: http://www.soundspike.com/reviews/873-bob_dylan_news_album_bob_dylan_the_original_mono.html

For anyone desiring MP3@320 or FLAC, they are here: http://bit.ly/boPytD Bob Dylan – The Original Mono Recordings (MP3 + FLAC) Mastered from the Original Analog MONO MASTERS by Mark Wilder at Sterling Sound: This is the Ultimate AUDIOPHILE Digital Dylan Box Set Bob Dylan’s first eight groundbreaking albums are returning to the marketplace for the first time ever in a limited edition box set of newly mastered mono versions on CD. The Original Mono Recordings are comprised of these albums painstakingly reproduced from their first generation monaural mixes as the artist intended them to be heard: One channel of powerful sound, both direct and immediate. While stereo recordings had been available as early as the mid-1950s, mono was still the predominant, and often preferred, mode of recording and mixing by the top artists of the 1960s. As a result, artists like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan devoted their attention to the mono mixes, leaving the stereo mixing process to studio engineers. Mastered from the original analog mono masters by legendary engineers at Sterling Sound in New York City, we guarantee this is the best you will ever hear Dylan sound on a digital format. This unprecedented set features some of the most important and timeless music ever made, now in a jaw-dropping sound that rivals what was heard in the studio control room.
