1. Betty Davis was married to Miles Davis. This album had an all-star cast of musicians.

In Miles' autobiography, he told of how in awe he was of Jimi Hendrix. He met Jimi and invited him home and introduced him to his wife, Betty.

He later found out that Jimi had slept with his wife, but he kept his cool. After all, he said, it was Jimi Hendrix.

2. I knew

She was Miles Davis's wife. I did not know Hendrix had slept with his wife. I would've been pissed at the both of them.

3. By the way, if you like this music, Mahalia Barnes did a whole album of Betty Davis covers.

You can see some of them on Youtube. She is the daughter of Australian rock and soul singer Jimmy Barnes.

I'm surprised she doesn't get more attention, because she is very talented and works with top notch musicians.
