LYDIA PENSE & Cold Blood - I'm a good woman

[@razzberry5698]

Lydia was right up there, but Janis was there too. She is one of my idols! When I had the opportunity, I had Cold Blood brought up to Anchorage to play a concert. I got to meet and sing in front of her. It was 1969! Got to chat with her in Eugene, Or., again in '97 and she was still going strong! LYDIA ROCKS!!!

[@jmtanner2245]

I can't tell you what that voice did to me in the 70's!!

[@blues999z]

Dynamite Woman and one great great Killer Blues Singer ------------- Lydia Pense !!!

[@66fiveandahalf]

Oh the memories this brings back, I had the pleasure of seeing this band many times in their heyday, as far as I'm concerned their heyday never ended, they still sound badass!!!

[@elliemerc01]

Wish I could have seen them, I live in Canada. Good for you!

[@Nancee57]

[@brianoconnor689]

Saw them live @ Winterland in SF 1971 as a warm up to Steppenwolf Immediately bought album as they really brought down the house at Winterland

[@vernonsteinkamp1088]

In the early '70's, Cold Blood was hot on the concert circuit. On two occasions, a group I was in (The Gabe Christopher Band) had the privilege of being the "warm up" group. I was 20 at the time. We have some stuff on KZbin (see; the Gabe Christopher Band, Ups and Downs) We were the warm up band for several headliner bands including Linda Tillery and theThe Loading Zone, Richard Bean, Sapo, Dakella, Elvin Bishop, Buddy Miles, Canned Heat and Fleetwood Mac.

[@treedocdh]

I saw her many times! Several at Frenchys in Hayward! Did you play there in the late 60s and 70s?

[@treedocdh]

I must have seen you not that I see who you warmed up for! Some terrific groups there! East bay funk baby!

[@billgonzales8978]

give it to me just like you did back in the day, Im old now but still grove with cold blood

[@stam.19]

wow super i got it since ,70,s

[@kentlewis987]

I was reading about Donny Hathaway’s involvement with Cold Blood and thought I would check them out. Can’t believe I’m just now discovering them.

[@elliemerc01]

First heard her in 1972, wow amazing group and Lydia's an amazing singer!

[@philcorn7471]

Power House! Lovely

[@LostBoy2008]

Still great after all these years! Even greater!

[@CanHistory2012]

Wow, what a voice!! Incredible!!

[@lydiamorris1279]

I saw them back in the day. Super hot soul! Love them, and Lydia kick's ass!

[@will30078]

Yes sir!!! This is back from when I was a teenager.

[@7777truman]

I played in the warm up band a couple times for Cold Blood in '72, I was 20 at the time and didn't even realize the greatness of this band

[@DragonAquarius]

That's one hell of a song! Luv u Lydia!!!

[@stephenboles6236]

[@denisemason3335]

Excellent! And so true!

[@1960christos]

[@armandomiranda5866]

Excelentes músicos y cantante, realmente magnificAs composiciones de reales músicos

[@IMAWriterRobJ]

I've had this ALBUM for probably forever. Saw them live a long time ago. Rod Elliott was gone, but Raul...a wonderful B3 player was there, and of course, the incomparable Lydia Pense. I saw her here in Nashville about 10 years ago having lunch. Not sure if she lives here.

[@danafandug]

one of my all time favs.

[@molllydollyh]

This women is awesome.I never new who she was .Until Iwas singing at Gig 1999.Some guy walked up to me .Do you know who is Lydia Pense.I didn't because i was to young.So I went to bye her album with cold blood.I was so impressed. Now I sing the blues.I will be performing her song on XFactor.2012.I will give her all the credit.She deserves more recognition.

[@robertwoodward829]

LYDIA CAN BLOW; 1969!!!

[@dondonner3880]

first time i listen to cold case and damn they are good

[@gr8blu]

bless her heart ~

[@yolandaocasioruiz6965]

Good one

[@mrstanbmw]

One of the greatest song she did was a Cover of the Song Your Good thing. The background singers was a group of girls from the Bay area kind of just starting out called the Pointer Sisters. what a jam. The Lydia killed it.

[@cindycook-boettner1094]

MYYYYY SOOONGGGG!!!!

[@ZINEDINE05]

I'm digging this one V....Never heard of Lydia Pense or Cold Blood.

[@LVVocalTraining]

Any real soul music enthusiest knows exactly who she is,, and we have all her stuff,, if you are in your 50, 60,s then we all saw them many times and she is the real deal. They are Very Very famous not in the mainstream POP culture, but in the B S and T and TOP culture of soul,

[@ekim43609]

and she is still gettin down

[@costyncostea8702]

Excelenta voce

[@SEVFEST]

ROFLMAO Good one my friend Loved your comeback : )

[@danielrola699]

I also saw the @Winterland I SF. I also saw the in Fresno with Ball and Jack

[@teresamelgoza2459]

she sure is love this music

[@MrChristian]

Wow!!!!!!!

[@theflash1952shodan]

@MrBEB123 I saw Cold Blood live several times in 1974-1976, and I saw Janis live twice in 1969-1970 and Lydia blows Janis in the weeds! Janis had a lot of soul, but Lydia had soul to spare, and far more talent. Not to mention that, in her younger years, she was a lot easier on the eyes!

[@michaelbirke6050]

Two different people. Two different lives. Two different backgrounds. But a shared love of music. One wonders, in what direction Janis’s career and life would have gone if she had not gotten into drugs and alcohol. You talk about soul. One was clean and one was scared. How do you measure talent. It’s unfair to compare. Watch any of the Dick Cavett interviews with Janis. They were before her addiction. She was a beautiful woman.

[@ekim43609]

she can still get down

[@farrellmolly]

Me: shitfaced drunk at at a music festival: Oh, My God, Lydia, I've been in love with you for 20 years! Are you going to do Rock Bottom Blues?. It's my favorite, I love you so much! Lydia: Something like thanks for your support and I'm fucking sick of this, let's just play some music. But they did play my favorite song, Rock Bottom Blues.

[@SEVFEST]

The best white female voices of this era belonged to Janis Joplin, Lydia Pense, Tracy Nelson, Genya Ravan, Gayle McCormick...... (in no particular order)

[@codyavilez1860]

SEVFEST Maggie Bell

[@theresatyler4043]

Grace Slick

[@vaughnmiller3896]

I agree with you, just don't leave out Tina Marie...

[@iowastate]

I saw Cold Blood a couple times in the early 70s. the sound they make now is ok but nothing like they were back in the day. Lydia was the only girl who gave Grace Slick any competition

[@vanu49again]

@rapunzzl Ja...eigenlijk krijg ik bij elke upload een waarschuwing....maar voor sommige artiesten loopt het systeem achter, denk ik!!! Ha! Enjoy Lydia...ze treedt nog steeds op!!!

[@vanu49again]

@Cathi417 Say Hi to Lydia for me then and have a great time. Vanu.

[@bagheadbobo]

Did she say “so don’t treat me like turd”?

[@vanu49again]

Maybe she meant "dirt"...lol!!

[@MrJberkin]

You mean Janis Joplin, and I think Cold Blood came out before she died (this song hit the chart in March, 1970). I agree, though, this woman was great and very nice looking, as well. I guess timing is everything. Why couldn't both have been stars?

[@brickceo]

such an amazing talent who never really got her props. I think she came out just a little to soon after Janis Chaplin died and just got placed on the shelf with Janice. Sad I always thought Lydia was better. Just a little more energy and range.

Lydia might approve of Beth Hart…

[@screwmaster404]

AOOFC ****

[@pinchold]

she's good but the trouble is she sounds much to close to Janis

[@hamsterstavros]

my ex-wife has stolen it from me !!!! helll !!!

[@brickceo]

Really? nothing better than that to say? Everyone knows who Janis Chaplin is, She's the youngest daughter of Charlie Chaplin and as you know was a big fan of Janis Joplin DUH! oops Nice catch.

[@vanu49again]

@thomaiskr Go in politics then!!!!

[@SEVFEST]

Who in God's name is Janis Chaplin? you really don't know your music, do you?
