A few days ago, one of my oldest friends, Denise, did a gut-wrenching story on blues singer Bettye LaVette and her new album The Scene of the Crime. Denise's story is in the latest Crawdaddy and if the heartfelt blues is what rings your bell I want to urge you to listen to Bettye's version of this Elton John-Bernie Taupin song from the 70's and then go read Denise's story.
