Details:
Dana Gillespie is nowadays known as a blues/r&b/jazz singer, but in her younger years she had two brief (but impressive) alternative careers. In 1967/68 she made two albums of folk pop, FOOLISH SEASONS and BOX OF SURPRISES. A long time friend and lover of David Bowie, she sang backing vocals on ZIGGY STARDUST and was signed to Bowies management company Mainman. For that company, she made two LPs, the superb WERENT BORN A MAN (1973) and AINT GONNA PLAY NO SECOND FIDDLE (1974). Despite production from David Bowie, Mick Ronson and Robin Cable, and the support of the best studio musicians of the day, neither album was a hit and Gillespie concentrated on her sex- bomb film career before reinventing herself as a bawdy blues mama in the 1980s. WERENT BORN A MAN is one of the strongest glam-rock-soul albums of the 1970s and and if youve never heard this stuff but you like Bowie and Mick Ronsonyou have a treat in store for you! Gillespie was a hugely underrated talent and Backed A Loser is worth the price of admission alone.
