Though soul singer Bettye Lavette had recorded a ton of singles from the early 1960s on, her early album projects went unreleased, so 1982's TELL ME A LIE was actually her first album. Despite the era and the label (Motown), most of the tunes sound like classic Southern soul (the album was made in Nashville), with Lavette's gritty voice atop some grinding, deep-soul grooves. Unfortunately, TELL ME A LIE wasn't exactly a career-maker, and Lavette wouldn't release another album until the early '90s.
