Sing Like a Man

Jimmie Scott doesn't sing like a man, he sings like a woman, particularly in these early cuts, which he recorded for the Savoy label. The first of a 3 CD Savoy retrospective, it is a fascinating look into the early sound of this curious, heartwrenching voice. To learn more about his life and why he sounds as he does, read this in Lil' Mike's blog.
