  • Great job Bettye and Ian - Bettye should have done an album for Motown of original Motown artist's songs.

  • I saw an interview with her on YTube where she says someone told her years ago that she "wasn't that good". Uhhm, would you like to retract that statement??? She's fabulous!

  • Too bad she was never given her time back in the day. Glad she has made an impact today. Great voice and she provides a wonderful version of this tune

  • She is so incredibly talented..... listening to her voice gives me chills!

    She has her own style - I love it! Sing the blues, Bettye!

    great video. thank you.

  • Bettye recorded the awesome Tell Me A Lie LP on Motown in the 80's and the powers that be (fools) have not released it on CD...great singer deserves better and is one of the greatest alive...Bravo Bettye

  • Bettye does Motown in her own way & one of the greatest LP's from the 80's is Bettye's Tell Me A Lie which was on Motown but they did nothing with it but it is a solid classic...needs to be released on CD. This great singer is HOT!!!

  • classic bettye lavette

  • Bettye rocks ..............

  • Awesome !

  • Danger; Danger !

  • Love you Bettye ,Rene from Vancouver

  • I love Bette Lavette doing this and 'I'm Ready For Love'

  • Awesome, she is is San Francisco on November 12' can't wait

  • Can you IMAGINE if Motown had asked Bettye LaVette to become the lead singer of the Marvelettes? History would probably have changed, placing "the Lettes" as the #1 female vocal group. Well, I can speculate, can't I?

  • I'll join you.

  • Bettye, great to see the great lady.

  • still cooking up a song ? only posted this one but the mail and friendship melts my moments.. Andy Cox at SOULXCHANGE (fridge Song,).

  • She sounds incredible on all of these songs from the MotorCity recordings. She TAKES these songs from the original artists, just as Aretha used to do.

  • If you think THIS is great [& it is!] you gotta hear her new c.d. "SCENE OF THE CRIME" out on SEPT. 24th thru ANTI records.

  • Hi, I'm Søren from Denmark. I hope that people who like this music will join up to receive "REACHING FOR THE BEST - THE IAN LEVINE NEWSLETTER".
