Our Take

Lena Horne's Unforgettable album is a delightful journey through the timeless classics of jazz and blues. Horne's smooth vocals effortlessly glide through each track, as if she's whispering sweet nothings in your ear. From the sultry tones of "Stormy Weather" to the upbeat swing of "Take the 'A' Train", this album is a true showcase of Horne's versatility as a singer.

The arrangements on Unforgettable are nothing short of exquisite, with each note carefully crafted to highlight Horne's impeccable vocal range. The backing band provides the perfect accompaniment, never overpowering Horne's vocals but always adding that extra layer of depth to the music.

One standout track on the album is "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered", where Horne's emotive delivery will have you feeling all the feels. It's a slow burner that builds to a stunning crescendo, leaving you hanging on every word.

Overall, Lena Horne's Unforgettable is a masterclass in jazz and blues music. It's an album that will transport you to a smoky, dimly lit jazz club where the music is smooth, the drinks are strong, and the vibes are just right. Lena Horne may have left us, but her music will always be Unforgettable.
