Bettye LaVette sat down with me to discuss her career in music just prior to the wonderful performance at Highmark Blues & Heritage Festival. The interview aired on The Soul Show, and here are the three 2-minute segments in case you missed it. Enjoy!
Donny Hathaway would have turned 73 this week. One of the things I think about often is how The Soul Show founder Stef Chatman and I completely converged in taste when it came to Donny… he is our favorite vocalist. Even though this is not a “major” milestone birthday, I don’t need much of an excuse to do a mini-feature this coming Saturday
Really enjoyed the interview clips. Ms. LaVette is very inspirational for me. She is living proof that if you keep pushing, you can live your dream!
Sorry I took so long to write back! Yes, I definitely understand that inspiration. So glad you enjoyed the clips. This website is giving me a place to post excerpts from The Soul Show in an organized way.
