An intimate evening with Bettye LaVette

Description

Now in her 55th year in show business, three time Grammy nominee Bettye LaVette is an interpreter of the highest order. Whether the song originated as country, rock, pop, or blues, when she gets through with it, it is pure R&B. She gets inside a song and shapes and twists it to convey all of the emotion that can be wrought from the lyric. She is one of very few of her contemporaries who were recording during the birth of soul music in the 60s and is still creating vital recordings today.
