Joe Bonamassa and Mahalia Barnes Releasing Betty Davis Tribute Album
. Betty married Miles Davis in the late '60s and introduced him to Jimi Hendrix. She later released three albums: a self-titled debut in 1973,They Say I'm Different in 1974 and Nasty Gal in 1975. Davis left the music biz in 1979, but a fourth album recorded in 1976, Is It Love or Desire? was finally released in 2009. The project with Bonamassa came about when Mahalia was in the studio with producer Kevin Shirley and her dad, vocalist Jimmy Barnes (Cold Chisel, Living Loud - known as Barnsey to we Aussies): she popped on a few Betty Davis tracks as reference and soon the idea for the album sprung into being. So Bonamassa visited Australia earlier this year to track the album, titled Ooh Yeah - The Betty Davis Song Book, over three days at Freight Train Studios in Sydney. Read more here.
