Our Take

Alright you groovy cats, buckle up because we're diving into the complete early years of the one and only Dakota Staton. This album is a pure throwback to the golden era of jazz, with Staton's sultry vocals taking center stage and stealing the show.

From the moment you press play, you're transported to a smoky, dimly lit jazz club where the music is smooth and the drinks are flowing. Staton's voice is like honey dripping over a hot biscuit, with each note oozing with soul and emotion.

The arrangements are tight, the musicians are on point, and the overall vibe is nothing short of magical. Tracks like "The Late, Late Show" and "Moonray" showcase Staton's range and versatility, while classics like "Broadway" and "What Do You Know" will have you tapping your feet and snapping your fingers in no time.

If you're a fan of old-school jazz with a modern twist, then this album is an absolute must-listen. It's like a time machine that transports you back to a simpler, sassier time when the music was hot, the style was cool, and Dakota Staton was queen of the jazz scene. So sit back, relax, and let the smooth sounds of Dakota Staton serenade you into a state of pure bliss. Trust us, you won't regret it.
