Lavelle WHITE

⬇️ LAVELLE WHITE ⬇️
(3CD)
 BIOGRAPHY 
Texas-based singer-songwriter "Miss" Lavelle White has a substantial discography of singles people go back to the 1950s and 60s, but she just released her first full length album, Miss Lavelle at Austin TX-based Antone label 1994.


To say that the album has been a long time would be understatement of the year for the White talents as a songwriter and singer was well known in 1950 Houston, where she recorded several singles for Duke / Peacock label in the late 50's, her label mates included Bobby "Blue" Bland BB King and Junior Parker.


Miss Lavelle White's was the first recording of any kind, in fact, for 30 years, the fact that it is a wonderful album helped White to play some great Blues Festival's greata U.S. Canada and Europe, but for a number of years when she had no record deal White continued to entertain club crowds with his singing in Chicago Texas Louisiana and Florida 

White first big break as a singer came with something she said to herself "If I could be with you "and a procession of other singles followed for Duke / Peacock label, including" Just look at you Fool, "" stop these Teardrops "and" The Tide of Love "Unlike many other blues singers White made it t get started recording until she was 25, thanks to second Houstonian Johnny "Clyde" Copeland, who brought White to Duke / Peacock owner Don Robey's attention 

White began writing poems and songs when she was 12, she said in a 1994 inter view "hardships in life led me to start write "förklarade she "and the first record I was cutting with a gospel group'Precious Lord Lead Me On" When she was 16, White moved to Houston and fell in the city's burgeoning blues club scene with Clarence Hollimon who now records with his wife Carol Fran for the Rounder label 

Today, long after she had her humble start in the blues clubs in Houston White sings as good as she ever did and if she has had time off from the road over the years, she never stopped singing or writing songs she released her first album, Miss Lavelle in 1994 followed three years later to not have been easy.
