All you Lady Gagas, all you Madonnas, all you Kate Perrys...all you: Bow down to this woman and be humble!

[Bart Pavlovich]

Strongly agree..!!! With a voice like that, you don't need to come out on stage in your bra, you don't need an amazing lightshow and you don't need semi naked dancers behind you to keep the audience captivated...!!!

[Dirk Begeman]

lots of bands covered this over the years

Luv her! Woke up this morning to come face-to-face with a rooster in my backyard. I'm guessin' he was more scared than I...either that or he just runs faster ;) God, I love Big Mama and nature...all the Black Racers, owls, opossoms, raccoons, squirrils, birds, lizards...everything but the spiders. No, not the spiders...or the roaches

Amazing Big Mama. this is a good song, I'm surprised I hadn't heard a cover of this by now

[Mary Catherine]

One tough woman...the first to tour, one of the few who could play instruments and sing, and one of the few to be open about her sexuality (homosexuality) at that time in history. She could belt out a tune like almost nobody else. The woman didn't need any help. One of my favorites from that time period...

If you like this sort of singing, check out "Devil Man" by Blues Pills :)

Only soul can have a voice like this...

Only a black woman can have a voice like this.
