Our Take

BESSIE SMITH's latest album, Sweet Mistreater, is a rollicking romp through the sounds of the roaring 20s. With her powerhouse vocals and sassy attitude, Smith proves once again why she is the queen of the blues.

From the foot-stomping opener "Downhearted Blues" to the soulful ballad "St. Louis Blues," Smith showcases her incredible range and versatility. Each track is a masterclass in storytelling, with Smith's raw emotional delivery drawing listeners in from the very first note.

The instrumentation on Sweet Mistreater is equally impressive, with a mix of piano, trumpet, and saxophone creating a lush, vibrant sound that perfectly complements Smith's vocals. The production is top-notch, with each instrument shining through clearly without overpowering the vocals.

Standout tracks include the infectious "Gimme a Pigfoot and a Bottle of Beer" and the hauntingly beautiful "Empty Bed Blues." Smith's charisma and charm shine through on every track, making Sweet Mistreater an absolute joy to listen to.

Overall, BESSIE SMITH's Sweet Mistreater is a must-listen for fans of blues and jazz alike. With its catchy melodies, powerful vocals, and expert musicianship, this album is a true gem that deserves a place in every music lover's collection. Don't miss out on this incredible album from one of the greatest voices in music history.
