Betty Lavettes CD is a monster. I met her here in Chicago several months ago when she performed at Rosa's Blues Lounge. She tore the roof off. Her CD is a masterpiece. I am proud to know a woman like her. She certainly deserves more air play. She has enough energy in her live performance for 2 artists. She's a fine looking woman......who certainly gives you your moneys worth live and on record. A great, great performer.......
