Originally a two-boy, one-girl trio, Hot Sauce quickly became a solo vehicle for the sublimely soulful singing of Chuck Berry’s niece Rhonda Washington, who fronts every one of the selections featured on “Good Woman Turning Bad”. Rather than using Stax’s own studios, their tracks were recorded elsewhere in Memphis at Royal (home of the Hi Sound) and sweetened in Detroit, which gives the recordings a near-unique sound as far as Stax 45s go. Hot Sauce was scheduled to have an album released in 1974 but the project was cancelled as Stax slid into bankruptcy. Using the original production master, we have resurrected the planned album’s running order and augmented it with various single-only sides to present the small but mighty catalogue of Hot Sauce on CD for the first time.
