Don't You Ever Get Tired Of Hurting Me?

Bettye Swann

Released

1969

This album from one of soul music’s gentlest and most sensitive singers is a great example of Southern soul with a country tinge, the fatback drums and unison horn lines complemented by downhome piano and twanging guitar. Swann was a soul singer whose restraint and control meant that when she did let rip it was that much more affecting and every performance here is textbook, yearning, sweet Southern soul.
