Lynn, Barbara
You'll Lose A Good Thing (clear)
Texan rhythm and blues icon Barbara Lynn made an incredible impact in 1962 with the chart-topping debut single, Youll Lose A Good Thing, which has since been covered by Aretha Franklin, Freddy Fender, and countless others. A southpaw guitarist who wrote her own material, debut LP Youll Lose A Good Thing captured our heroine at her best, the soulful smoky voice a striking contrast to the blues base of her backing musicians (including Dr John on keyboards). Containing the follow-up hits Second Fiddle Girl and Letter To Mommy And Daddy as well as the cherished title track, its a winner from start to finish.
