This could be good. Unreleased early stuff by Betty Davis, recorded in 1968-69, with Mitch Mitchell on drums, guitarist John McLaughlin, Herbie Hancock on keyboards, Wayne Shorter on sax, and organist Larry Young. The three songs I've heard are telling, not quite as hard as the stuff she did just a couple years later, but you can hear it coming.
