Bettye’s vocal strengths are amply evident on A Woman Like Me, perhaps her finest artistic statement to date. On the heels of her acclaimed European releases she was approached by producer Dennis Walker, a three-time Grammy winner known for his work with Robert Cray and B.B. King.
Walker immediately set to writing a sterling batch of songs for her, and with Bettye’s creative input, the two soon developed a fruitful artistic partnership. Bettye LaVette is sounding better than ever, and, as this excellent CD proves, will be giving us lots of soul for many years to come.
