Post Description
A wildly flamboyant funk diva with few equals even three decades after her debut,
Betty Davis combined the gritty emotional realism of Tina Turner, the futurist fashion
sense of David Bowie, and the trendsetting flair of Miles Davis, her husband for a year
( 1968-1969). It's easy to imagine the snickers when a 23-year-old model married a
famous musician twice her age, but Davis was no gold digger; she turned Miles on to
Jimi Hendrix and Sly Stone (providing the spark that led to his musical reinvention on
In a Silent Way and Bitches Brew), then proved her own talents with a trio of sizzling
mid-'70s solo LPs.
