"Ooh Yea! - The Betty Davis Songbook is one fine record that's as funky, greasy and wonderfully retro as a Saturday night fish-fry, while boasting the type of modern, in-your-face sounds and production we've come to love on modern releases from Guy Clark Jr. and Vintage Trouble. Mahalia Barnes and her cohorts have breathed new life into material by a songwriter and performer who was ahead of her time and forgotten too quickly as a result".
