Elkie Brooks. Whats The Matter Baby (Live) Rare Recording

A rare live Filming following another Sell Out Tour, after the huge chart success of the single and album No More The Fool. The Song What's The Matter Baby was Originally Recorded by Timi Yuro, and released in 1962. After Elkie's Recording (Released on the 1988 album Bookbinders Kid) Timi Yuro was so impressed with the version, she contacted Elkie while she was on a UK tour, and the two kept in contact and became close musical friends.

Originally recorded by Timi Yuro. When Timi heard Elkies version of this she loved it and contacted Elkie to tell her so.

Fantastic, fill those lungs Elkie and let it go.

Still one of the best singers ever. Even into her seventies her voice is as good

You should listen to the Righteous Brothers Bobby Hatfield's version of this song, it will blow you away.

[@Jake-jr2zh]

Timi Yuro who sang this originally. Was blown away by the version Elkie done . Timi Yuro called Elkie to tell her so.

Great vocals indeed but I think Ellen Foley's version is much better in its intense venom and the driving rhythm.

[@Jake-oc5xz]

Nah I checked that out , this is way ahead in power vocals. Timi Yuro called Elkie Brooks to compliment her on her version.

[@cadelepski5161]

Totally agree. Elkie just tries too hard.

[@Jake-jr2zh]

@@cadelepski5161Elkie Brooks doesn’t need to try. She’s capable of without even thinking about it. Timi Yuro contacted Elkie to compliment her on doing this and how great it was .

[@cadelepski5161]

@@Jake-jr2zh So you keep saying. Nevertheless, I like Ellen Foley's better.

Timi yuro s version is better than this version

[@Jake-jr2zh]

[@Jake-jr2zh]

Nah , Elkie owns this even Timi Yuro said so.
