Betty Davis: Putting the Miles behind her
Robin Katz, Let It Rock, October 1975
BETTY DAVIS is the amazon-sized, raucous, screeching ex-wife of Miles Davis who has copped (unofficially) this year's award for best B-side of a flop single. The tune is called 'He Was A Big Freak'. Screaming as if chained to dungeon walls, Miss Davis cries "he was a big freak... I used to beat him with a turquoise chain... I used to tie him up. He couldn't get enough... he'd be on the floor... beggin' for more..."
