Скачать или смотреть Yancey - Makin' Music For Money

From the 1976 LP "Yancey." This LP was ahead of its time, I guess. Here's what I mean. On this record's album cover, Celia Yancey is pitched in what I thought at the time (and still do) is a rather weird way. I won't quote you the liner notes, but suffice it to say that it is assumed that the pitch made there by whoever was guiding her career, together with the LPs photos, was intended to make her appear sexy and appealing. I'll be honest--what I see there just scares me. Yancey is the first female recording artist to do that that I can recall. Since then, artists like Madonna, Lady Gaga, Rihanna and even Miley Cyrus have cultivated images that scare rather than appeal to me. But in my recollection, Yancey was first. I told you she was ahead of her time.

It is certainly a well-crafted record with first-rate performances by all. Musicians include Steve Cropper, Carl Marsh, Jim Dickinson, James Brown, Tommy Cathey, Fred Prouty, Errol Thomas, Willie Hall, Dale Sellers, Reggie Young, Kenneth Buttrey, Tommy Cogbill, Tony Migliore, Henry Strzelecki, Ron Oates, Kenny Malone, Steve Gibson, The Nashville Strings, The Memphis Horns, The Muscle Shoals Horns. Background vocals by Celia Yancey, Carl Marsh, Gary S.
