At first glance, Bettye LaVette's 2010 album Interpretations: The British Rock Songbook, would appear to be just another collection of covers. But “interpretations” is the key word here, because LaVette, a Detroit soul veteran and a contemporary of more famous peers like Aretha Franklin and Smokey Robinson, is no run-of-the-mill singer, and she takes these classic British Invasion tracks and gives them new dimension, making them in every sense and nuance her own. That’s not an easy task, since every one of these tracks is a well-known song, seemingly immutable in the original version, but amazingly, LaVette steals each and every one of them.
Interpretations: The British Rock Songbook covers songs by British rock legends such as The Beatles, Elton John, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and more. In June 21, 2010, it charted at number 1 on the U.S. Billboard's Top Blues Albums, where it was in the charts for 39 weeks.
