Big Maybelle - Quitin' time

[Bierney45]

Hi PurpleCorcra. Thanks for the message. Apologies.......Maybelle's ICONIC and gut-wrenching track is called DON'T PASS ME BY.......issued on RoJac. Uploaded here by "Tootaki." OK? It is truly amazing. Prepare to be hurt!!!!! LOL. What a lady, what a singer, what a voice! Lucky enough to have met her in the mid 60's over here in the UK. Cheers and Happy Christmas, Bierney45.

[Bierney45]

PLEASE everyone, check out her PLEASE DONT PASS ME BY! One of the greatest and deepest of all Soul tracks. Have a tissue ready for the tears. An amazing artiste. This Northern track shows her versatility and she still retains her bluesy-soulful voice. A true Soul Icon.

Bien ! Vraiment bien même

Quelques réminiscences du son " Stax " dans 'l 'orchestration

[soulupnorth]

the lady did a absolutely killer version of 'i Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself"

(same backing track to Tommy Hunt's, but the vocal is out of this world!!)

See this is why I love youtube...you get to find great artists on here and appreciate their songs. I am now offically a fan of Maybelle.

What was her era?

This sounds like late 70s music!

I thought she was PRE Elvis!

I might be thinking about CO CO TAYLOR!

@jor99912 This was back in the 60's...And actually, it's the same backing instrumental track that was used for the Soul group The Capitals' "song "Cool Jerk."

[WholeLotofRocknRoll]

she could really sing everything : blues, rock'n'roll,pop and like here it is soul.

she's just a really great singer. r.i.p

[Linelia]

I love her voice! She was also a beautiful lady! Someone should do her life story! I had the privilege to see her at the Apollo Theatre when I was young and she was at my neighborhoods block parties in NYC with other people such as the late great James Brown, etc. R.I.P. Maybelle and James Brown!

This song is completely on fire! Just fierce. This song, along with her great remake of "96 Tears" proves that a CD release of whatever she recorded for Rojac Records in the 1960's is in order.

[jonrickly]

lord have mercy...on fire!

i just heard her version of 96 tears tonight and was knocked out!

came here and was knocked out again!

the real deal!

[clo45]
