Our Take

Abbey Lincoln's "Straight Ahead" is a smooth, soulful journey through the highs and lows of love and life, set to the backdrop of some seriously killer jazz riffs. From the moment the needle drops on the opening track, you'll find yourself transported to a dimly lit jazz club where Abbey's velvety voice weaves tales of heartbreak and redemption with effortless grace. Each track on the album is a masterclass in storytelling, with Abbey's lyrics cutting straight to the heart of the human experience. Whether she's crooning about lost love on "Another World" or belting out an anthem of empowerment on "The World Is Falling Down," Abbey's vocals are nothing short of electrifying. The instrumentation on "Straight Ahead" is equally impressive, with Abbey's backing band serving up a smorgasbord of brass and percussion that will have you tapping your feet in no time. The arrangements are intricate yet accessible, striking a perfect balance between musical complexity and pure, unadulterated groove. In short, Abbey Lincoln's "Straight Ahead" is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado looking to add a touch of soul to their record collection. So grab a glass of wine, dim the lights, and let Abbey's enchanting vocals sweep you off your feet. You won't be disappointed.
