various artists - mama's got a bag of her own
stomping mix of uptempo soul, heart rendering 60's r-n-b and several fat and funky grooves straight out of the 70's, many of which were only ever available on vinyl, making this collection a feast for the beat collectors, i mean check the line up below. how can anyone say no to irma thomas, nancy wilson, betty lavette, marlena shaw ?
high quality class in so many ways.
