Our Take

Abbey Lincoln's "Abbey Is Blue / It's Magic" is a delightful foray into the world of jazz that is as complex and dazzling as a pint of warm beer in a crowded pub. With her soulful vocals and poignant lyrics, Lincoln takes us on a journey through love, loss, and everything in between.

On "Abbey Is Blue," Lincoln's voice shimmers like the reflection of Big Ben on the Thames at sunset. The arrangements are tight and groovy, with the band providing the perfect backdrop for Lincoln's emotional storytelling. Tracks like "Afro Blue" and "Lonely House" showcase Lincoln's range and versatility, while "Brother, Where Are You?" hits you right in the gut with its raw, emotive power.

"It's Magic" is where Lincoln really lets loose, like a tipsy reveller on a night out in Soho. The title track is a sultry slow burner that oozes charm and sensuality, while "A Circle of Love" is a joyous celebration of the power of connection. Throughout the album, Lincoln's voice is like a warm hug from a friendly bobby, comforting and reassuring.

In conclusion, "Abbey Is Blue / It's Magic" is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado looking for a bit of British flair. Abbey Lincoln's talent shines brightly like the crown jewels, leaving us with a sense of wonder and admiration. Cheers to Abbey, the queen of jazz!
