| Details: |
Personnel: Bettye LaVette (vocals); Kelvin Holly (guitar); John Neff, Patterson Hood, Mike Cooley (guitars); Sum Haque, Spooner Oldham (piano); David Hood, Shonna Tucker (bass guitar); Brad Morgan (drums). Before Bettye Lavette's world-beating 2005 comeback album, I'VE GOT MY OWN HELL TO RAISE, she struggled through career tribulations for decades, a conspicuous indignity being Atlantic's refusal to release her 1972 Muscle Shoals sessions. Three-and-a-half decades later, she followed up HELL TO RAISE by returning to THE SCENE OF THE CRIME and recording in Muscle Shoals once more, backed not only by old-school sessioneers like David Hood, but by Hood's son Patterson's band, the Drive-By Truckers. The Truckers sublimate their rock tendencies, offering a greasy blend of soul and blues to back Lavette's throaty, passion-filled narratives. She winds her way through tunes by everyone from Elton John to John Hiatt, investing them all with powerful emotion, delivering a modern soul classic. |
