Shirley Brown: Woman to Woman (Original Recording Remastered)

Jan 9, 2012, 2:00am PopMatters
Shirley Brown / Woman To Woman
The song "Woman to Woman" remains a footnote - a perpetual inclusion on lists of "one-hit wonders" from the 1970s. Shirley Brown certainly could have done worse, but she deserved better. This album, one of the last Stax releases to make any impact before the venerable label went belly up a short time later, produced a No. 1 hit ("Woman to Woman", two weeks at the top of the Billboard R&B charts) but otherwise failed to register much on the radar. This is a shame, since it was (and remains) a top shelf soul record from one of the [...]

Shirley Brown - Woman To Woman
Stax exits the stage on a high note Soul singer Shirley Brown owns the somewhat dubious distinction of having the last major hit single for Stax. The title track from her 1975 debut album, issued on the Truth subsidiary, reached the top of the R&B chart in 1974, and just missed the pop Top 20. The album’s lead off, “It Ain’t No Fun,” was issued as a follow-up, but with Stax sliding into bankruptcy, the release stalled further down the charts. Stax had survived the near-death of their 1967 break with Atlantic, and with [...]

Paint it Black

Paint it Black Prima di dire di musica vorremmo specificare che questa rubrica - Paint it black - ha il solo scopo di cercare di diffondere una musica/genere musicale che qui da noi (come tante altre cose in fondo) non ha visibilità né particolare appeal ma che, invece, stimola molto l’interesse delle persone a cui viene, più o meno consapevolmente, proposto. Noi ci limiteremo a segnalare,di quando in quando, alcuni lavori di artisti più o meno noti che speriamo di recuperare all’attenzione del maggior numero di persone possibile. Detto ciò esordiamo con una artista di cui [...]

Mel & Tim: Starting All Over Again [1972] Shirley Brown: Woman to Woman [1974] In 1972, Barbara was the 58th most popular name for baby girls. In 1974, it had dropped to 77. In our own time, Barbara seems to have fallen out favor, charting in at 561st, snugly between Jaida and Janet. However, when the Barbaras from these two songs were born, let's say in 1949 and 1951, you were looking at the 4th and 5th most popular name. Digression - the only Barbara I know personally is Italian. I love [...]
