Please. Betty D posed on an album cover w/ what is apparently armor and a spear of some sort. She's ready to handle weaponry.
I'm a little surprised at the lack of support for BD. Her shit thumps. I'm taking Betty Davis.
In a cage match, we have weapon & armor handling Ms. Mabry, who can get nasty, by her own description.
In the other corner, AC would likely be able to levitate, and probably transform herself into a she-hellion (shellion?), (I'm picturing the lady from the darker half of the bitches brew gatefold here). There is a good chance she could shoot lasers from her eyes, should she choose to engage in such negative behavior, so I am going with the lasers and levitation. Er'rytime. Spears? Please.

Funny part is, the angriest part of "Mississippi Goddam" is the words, because the music itself sounds like a damn showtune! The dichotomy between the melody and the serious subject matter kills me. Did you know Philips released that song as a SINGLE? With the word "goddam" bleeped out and the title altered to something like "Mississippi !@#$%^&"? And radio, as far as I know, STILL didn't play it (no surprise).
Sorry for the thread hijack...getting back to the original topic, I'd go with Betty Davis, if only because I'm more of a rock-funk fan than a jazz fan.
With the peace-&-love voiceover and what sounds like a harpsichord? The aural definition of "Hasn't Aged Well."
I was lucky to see Alice Coltrane in concert this past autumn. Didn't realize she'd be passing out of this realm so soon.
I listen to Coltrane and Santana "Illuminations" all the time. Some of her other albums I've darn near wore out too.

i feel davis n all but she has nothing on miss coltrane. Woman is a bloody genius. I dont know who else could play the harp like her and arrange like her. Every album I own from her is straight
. betty davis can not take you to level 9 when you just smoked a joint, but alice can. She is one of the all time best spiritual jazz artists ever made, dont be illegal and say no superpoaster you be wrong cuz my soul is spirit like jazz is to chicken.

Is Betty Davis a poser?
"Game is my middle name"...i find that one a little unbelievable.
If her game was different than mine then it would end up bad.
What is the ideal sex life anyway? I hear, from parents, sex waxes and wanes.

even though you are one of the cooler strutter on hurr i must disagree.
listen to Journey in Satchidananda and tell me you dont get so high you see monkeys talking to you and handing you bars of gold telling you they are serious deals. Davis only gets you to level 6 or 7. pretty good but not naked monkey dance bars of gold trip of the day i laughed so hard i pissed out of my eye type of deal
