one new(er):

Woman of the Ghetto

So... I just came up on this beautiful promo copy of Marlena Shaw's "Live at Montreux" lp for quite cheap. Been looking for this one for years and years. The version of Woman of the Ghetto on it is one of the best live recordings of any track, ever. It got me to thinking about some of the other classics it gave us.

First, the original live version:

Of course you'll remember Blue Boy's track "Remember Me" from the first Mushroom Jazz. 

Here's the Ill Flip Remix from the 12":

St. Germain's Rose Rouge:

And as a bonus, here's Doris Duke's cover. 

I almost like it better than Marlena's original album cut. It feels a little grittier.

Ok, one more...

The Dynamics - She's for Real (Bless You)
