LaVern Baker at Porretta Soul 1996
LaVern Baker. The Porretta Soul Festival is held every year in Rufus Thomas park in the city of Porretta Terme in Bologna, Italy. It was started by Graziano Uliani in 1988, an avid fan of the Memphis Sound , in honour of Otis Redding tragically killed in a plane crash. Elvis also did this song. He had high regard for LaVern too. Her song Hey Memphis is a take off of Little Sister by Elvis.

Robbie Montgomery, Venetta Fields and Jessie Smith were initially members of the Ikettes who backed Ike and Tina Turner, but left after Ike ...
-
Shirley Brown with a self penned song. A sad story but that the way it goes with Soul.
