ROSE BATTISTE - HIT & RUN b/w I MISS MY BABY


(originally posted 9/17/10)

Another perfect double sider!

Detroit's Rose Battiste was a victim of poor promotion, as the quality of records like this show her to be a VERY capable vocalist (at all of 19 years old when this record was cut) with excellent material and production.

"Hit & Run" is yet another perfect, uptempo Detroit four-on-the-floor stomper, while "I Miss My Baby" features a genius arrangement pitting a dreamy, moody sound against some of the most forceful, aggressive drumming in all of sixties soul.

One word- PERFECT!

from 1966...

HIT & RUN


I MISS MY BABY
