Our Take

Dinah Washington's "Back To The Blues" takes us on a soul-stirring journey through the depths of the genre, leaving us utterly spellbound from the first note to the last. Washington's vocals are like a smooth whiskey on a cool night - warm, rich, and utterly intoxicating.

The album pays homage to the classic blues sound, while infusing it with her own unique style and flair. With tracks like "I Wanna Be Loved," "A Bad Case of the Blues," and "Headin' For Home," Washington showcases her vocal prowess and emotional depth, transporting us to a smoky jazz club in the heart of the Mississippi Delta.

Each track on "Back To The Blues" is a masterclass in storytelling, with Washington expertly weaving tales of heartbreak, longing, and redemption. The raw emotion in her voice is palpable, wrapping around you like a familiar embrace and drawing you into her world of heartache and resilience.

From the sultry brass section to the soulful piano melodies, every element of this album is perfectly crafted to showcase Washington's talents. It's a timeless classic that serves as a reminder of why she is considered one of the greatest voices in blues music history.

In a world of fleeting trends and manufactured pop stars, Dinah Washington's "Back To The Blues" is a breath of fresh air - a reminder of the power of authentic music that comes straight from the soul. So sit back, pour yourself a glass of bourbon, and let the music wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
