Bettye Swann "Bettye Swann" Album Review

A revelation!
I bought this item based on the other excellent reviews here and my own craving for relatively obscure music. I must say that I do play this CD constantly and I've made multiple copies in the event that the original wears out! Bettye is absolutely amazing; I wish there were even more of her available on CD. I now also own her Money Recordings which are also absolutely worthwhile. It is a crime that Bettye wasn't more widely recognized and has now vanished into obscurity. A singer with such grace, power, and sensitivity should never herself have gone "unsung". Reviewers elsewhere have called her "low-key", I suppose because while one cannot deny her soulfulness, she sings with an economy that nonetheless carries great emotion. Witness her performance on "Closed for the Season" or "Little Things": Bettye can belt it, but she doesn't need to because her voice is so exquisitely expressive otherwise. In sum, I cannot sing the praises of this CD highly enough. I can listen to it all the way through and enjoy every track. With all of the decidedly soul-less music out there today, Bettye is truly a revelation from yesterday.
