The Rose Battiste
Story
REFLECTIONS
|
|
I found this
un-dated photograph in a guy's basement in Detroit and have
been told by a few of her contemporaries that it's Rose. But
she told me it isn't. If that's the case; Who is it?"

After
such a frustrating career littered with many "if
only" experiences, most entertainers would be pulling
their hair out, but Rose remains phlegmatic.When I asked
her how she felt about success always proving to be elusive
she smiled, shrugged and said, "It just wasn't meant
to be and I had such a ball!"

Many
thanks to Rose Battiste, Don Davis, Joseph "Kingfish" Stribling,
George McGregor and Don Mancha for generously giving me their time to
patiently answer my esoteric questions.
