Just when you thought every great soul cut had been rediscovered, re-mastered, and re-released, along comes the import-only Mama’s Got A Bag Of Her Own, a compilation of hard-to-find female-fronted songs from the ’60s and ’70s. Three of our favorites finds are below, including the title track, which is a none-too-subtle response to the hardest-working man in show-business:

Gloria Jones – What You Want (1968) [MP3, link expired] Anna King – Mama’s Got A Bag Of Her Own (1965) [MP3, link expired] Timi Yuro – Gotta Travel On (1963) [MP3, link expired] Stateside Records [Label site]
