Barbara Lynn

Barbara Lynn is a bad-ass... I have been a fan of her recordings for a long time, but I had no idea how cool she really is. I found some of her 45's on our recent trip up to Omaha, which I'm really excited about, but as I was getting ready to post this entry I found a live video of her from 1966. It's amazing! The song is great and so is the performance. I had no idea that she was a guitar player as well as a singer. It's unusual to see a 60's soul singer playing an instrument, so I think it's especially cool. So, here are two recordings by Barbara Lynn on the Jamie label. I think these are both from 1962 or 1963 and like I said, the live video is from 1966.
