Then And Now (Vinyl LP) Rock N Roll & 50s

Still at the university

in the words of songwriter Phillip Mitchell

It's getting tougher and the stakes are getting higher

culminating in no less than an Academy Award

the sheer force this eighteen year old artist injects into her compositions almost beggars belief

and blessed with a keen eye and ear for talent

The Twisted Wheel

with liner notes

Her uncle William Blakely was the Bishop of Indiana and her sister sang back-up for Lou Rawls

Beginning with the sinister I Should Have Known Better a song that has so little to do with the same-titled Beatles song that it really is scary

delivering a high octane 'Ruff Kut' mix and a choppier Baltimore Club-tinged 'Love Break' dub
