Our Take

Aretha Franklin, Camille Howard, Shirley Horn, Nina Simone, Rose Murphy, Cleo Brown, Julia Lee, Blossom Dearie - what do these fierce ladies have in common? They're all jazz queens who can slay the piano keys with their smooth vocals.

"Jazz Ladies - The Singing Pianists 1926-1961" is a delightful compilation that takes you on a journey through the golden era of jazz music. Each track is like a little time capsule, transporting you back to smoky nightclubs and dimly lit bars where these talented ladies held court.

Aretha Franklin's soulful rendition of "Skylark" is like a warm hug for your ears, while Nina Simone's haunting take on "Strange Fruit" will send shivers down your spine. Camille Howard's funky groove on "Fiesta in Old Mexico" will have you tapping your feet uncontrollably, and Rose Murphy's playful ditty "Busy Line" will make you want to pick up the phone and call someone just to share the joy.

With a mix of classic tunes and hidden gems, "Jazz Ladies" is a must-have for any jazz aficionado. So grab a cocktail, dim the lights, and let these talented pianists serenade you into the wee hours of the morning. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
