Betty Davis - They Say I'm Different

3x****
"Shoo-B-Doop..." sets the tone effectively enough, but "He Was A Big Freak"**** literally screams our its kink. "Your Mamma Wants Ya Back"**** The second of the triple threat plays more sultry and more varied as each verse breaks down instrumentally as Betty um concludes. "Don't Call Her No Tramp"**** sets up with a hell of a keyboard groove that builds to full-on jam. The rest of the album doesn't quite keep the momentum. "Git In There" maintains the funk, but is more abstract than catchy, while the title song is like Big Freak with the 'Smoke On The Water' riff. "Special People" is unique, close to soul/jazz.
