Barbara Lynn Ozen rocks. Her first single "You'll Lose A Good Thing" was a #1 R&B hit and Top 10 pop hit in 1962. Her contemporaries included Gladys Knight, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, Sam Cooke, Al Green, James Brown, Marvin Gaye, Tina Turner, B.B. King among others. How she hasn't achieved the same notoriety I have no idea. Especially given the way she rocks out on that guitar. Thanks go to PB for turning me on to her.
Here are some clips to watch. Apparently they are reissuing some of her music on CD soon, but I'll likely need to get some on iTunes.
And yeah, that was Chuck Berry.
nice!
