DELIA GARTRELL - FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE
I am a BIG fan of the sub genre of soul records in which ladies plot revenge on bad boys. STICK IT TO 'EM!!!!!
In this track, Delia Gartrell uses a very fiery performance to get the point across, with fuzz guitar and wicked drumming that deliver the message loud and clear.
Delia was a cocktail jazz singer in Atlanta where soul hero THE MIGHTY HANNIBAL caught a performane and was enchanted with her voice. She was in a relationship with his friend, who Hannibal tried to partner with to make records with Delia. That partnership never materialized, but Delia and Hannibal DID find a partnership together; both on wax and later as husband and wife.
from 1972...
