On a slightly different Bettye subject. Does anyone know if that early days video of her performing 'Let Me Down Easy' is available to watch/get anywhere. It was on the 'tube' for years before it got pulled, and I used to watch it in awe at least monthly. These days, every time she gets mentioned I am brought back to images of it. She's wearing a long, body hugging goldish coloured dress, I just know that many of you will know the one.
