The always brave and incendiary singer Bette Smith includes in this new recording a variety of musical elements that over the years have deeply influenced her To do so, she delivers a perfect musical combination where she gathers elements coming from gospel she weekly listened in church and soul she enjoyed during the weekends in different local clubs Sticking to this background, Bette has selected ten hitting songs, perfect for any party, which will give joy and will make people dance Betty had a very clear idea of what she wanted to do in this new album, so she called her producer Matthew Robert Patton and told him she wanted to record an album with southern-rock, some blues and a lot of soul, following Aretha Franklin’s traces, but with a more rocker style that, together with her personal outstanding voice, give a more actual air to the music of an album that has also been inspired by Ike & Tina Turner, Betty Wright and Betty Davis Once again, a new wise choice of German label Ruf Records that often bets on great actual female voices of contemporary rock and blues
