Mel Brown - Big Foot Country Girl

Another Mel Brown record for your asses. This one from 1973, might be his last, I don't know. This, like all other Mel B records I own, was released on Impulse.

Need Love


Stinging Bea


Musically, it's what you usually get from a Mel Brown album, meaning a bluesy, funky and soulful mix, with a very down-home kind of sound.

1. Need Love
2. Home Folks
3. Red Cross Store
4. Little Girl, Don't You Know
5. Big Foot Country Girl
6. Goin' Down Slow
7. Stinging Bea
