Marva Whitney Interview Nice interview from James Brown alumna...
...Marva Whitney - http://www.wefunkradio.com/extra/marva/ Cool Quote: (One of my favorite anecdotes about Brown is his audition of a guitar player: "Can you play a G7 chord?" "Sure can." "Can you do it for twenty minutes?"). Marva's What Do I Have to Do to Prove My Love to You is one of the funkiest tunes recorded by a female or male. tA  Tribal Disorder

i'm sure i've asked this before, but are there other CD (re)issues beyond "it's my thing"? i think i read she has a NEW album coming out soon, but is there more from her back catalog that we should be anticipating? | |

http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 well, i KINDA found my answers from there, as it led me to www.marvawhitney.com, where her discography page taught me that there are TWO marva albums yet to be reissued: * Live and lowdown at the Apollo * I Sing Soul so what are they waiting for?
i read in the waxpoetics interview that marva has a NEW album coming out, though i don't see a peep about it on the soulpower site. then again, i can be selectively blind sometimes.  | |

...I Am What I Am (2007) And... 
...Live in Japan (recorded during a few 2006 shows in Japan) Both co-produced by the Org's own MrSoulpower. tA Tribal Disorder
