Barbara Lynn
Barbara Lynn Ozen or as she is known to soul enthusists around the world, Barbara Lynn, has been making music since she the early 60s and continues to this day. Although she’s had hits such as ”You’ll Lose A good Thing” on Atlantic Records, I feel her best material was on the Tribe label. Here she recorded her seminal track “I’m A Good Woman” that still rings out edgey and fresh and easily fetches $100 on ebay in mint condition.
After sometime out of the spotlight she returned in late 80s to record the great comeback album You Don’t Have To Go on the Ichiban label. Since then she has received Pioneer Award by the Rhythm and Blues Foundation in 1999 and had her material sampled by Moby on his 19 album.
Cultures of Soul Records is reissuing together for the first time ever on 45,
Barbara Lynn’s “I’m A Good Woman” and “I Don’t Want A Playboy.” Both tracks are in-demand 45s in their own right on ebay. ”I’m A Good Woman” is a soul classic while “I Don’t Want A Playboy” is a midtempo stomper with a chunky guitar groove. The 45 is limited 1,000 copies and is officially in stores on September 7th but you can order it right now in our store for $8.99.
