Belated youtube tribute fo International Women's Day →[More:]Barbara Lynn was a R&B singer from Port Arthur, Texas most famous for her hit "You'll Lose A Good Thing" which hit when she was still a teenager. Lynn was something of an anomaly for her time for both a woman and a such a young artist in that she was also a guitarist and wrote most of her own material. In this
clip from a '50's teen show, she does a
killer rendition of Ray Charles "What'd I Say.'
Bonuses:
The Ronnettes on The TNT show. Ronnie Spector was one hot number,man and she's still the Queen Of Rock and Roll to me.
A rare
TV appearance by the Shangri-La's, the original tough chicks doing their finest tune.
Some rare vintage footage of Wanda Jackson, the Queen Of Rockabilly doing 'Mean Mean Man.'
And this
amazing clip of the brother and sister rockabilly duo called The Collins Kids on Tex Ritter's Ranch Party. Dig that crazy dancing and that double-neck.
A tribute to some of the great ladies of rock and roll. I know I'm a day late, but I hope I'm not a dollar short.
