A fact from Bettye LaVette appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 14 December 2005. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that soul singer Bettye Lavette's album Souvenirs was recorded in 1972, but was shelved by Atlantic Records until a French music collector discovered it and released it in 2000, sparking a continuing surge of interest in the singer?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2005/December.

who screwed around with this page? it's completely messed up!

Betty Lavette[edit]

So are Betty and Bettye two different people? Otherwise shouldn't mention be made of the fact that she didn't add the 'e' until well into her career? I'd also be interested in whether she was inspired to make the change by Bettye Swann or vice/versa.
