SKYLINE RECORDINGS PRESENTS
THE FAMILY FORTUNE feat BETTY BLACK 
"CRY ME A RIVER"
SL45024 
Skyline Recordings are thrilled to be releasing this incredibly modern, yet classic take of the timeless, Cry Me A River. This is an AWESOME version.
On the A side, Betty Black (aka Elisabeth Troy) delivers a unique and powerful vocal; backed up with the rhythm section TFF (The Family Fortune) comprising of the incredible Pat West (guitar, drums); Andy Ross (saxophone) & Ralph Lamb (trumpet).
The goosebumps come and, before you know it, you're singing and dancing along. The horns combined with Black's vocals gives this a real Brit Funk, Diana Krall meets Grace Jones vibe, with a side of James Bond. This is a real 'smiler'. A great 45rpm for Betty Black's first single. On the flip, TFF never fail to deliver a deep and inspirational instrumental featuring Kaidi Tatham on keyboards and Andy Ross on flute. Perfect DJ tool.
Already hailed as a funk favorite by top British DJ, Craig Charles and getting great air play on BBC radio 2 and BBC 6 Music, Betty Black is one to watch. Don't miss out.
