Dinah Washington: The Queen Sings  Dinah
Washington Proper Box, 2002 4xCDs. box set. booklet £15.50
 Dinah
Washington could sing anything, whether she sang blues, jazz, pop or R&B,
she was clearly at ease and in command. Her singing voice, emphatically
emotional and with a diamond hard edge, was somehow in keeping with whatever
she sang, adding resonance to blues and profound songs, acerbic wit to trite
songs, and making many love songs unbearably moving. This 4 CD survey of
Dinah Washington contains all her commercial recordings from 1944 until
1951.
Compiled and produced for release by Joop Visser. |
