1959
I CRIED A TEAR * LaVERN BAKER * LONDON 8790 * UK
A enduring melancholy ballad full of heartache with a gentle
swaying rhythm that LaVern Baker enhances with her constantly modulating
voice that ranges from a soft reproach to barely restrained melodic shout of
anger. Released in the US on Atlantic # 2007, I Cried A Tear was
her sixteenth single of thirty four for the label (including duets), and reached
#2 on the R&B chart and #6 on the pop chart in the USA
