Description
180g virgin vinyl, limited edition of 1000 copies only - the complete album + 4 bonus tracks. Blues, R&B, and jazz singer Dinah Washington (1924-1963), the Grammy-winning "Queen of the Black Jukebox," left her turbulent life behind due to an overdose at the tender age of 39. In that short period, a volatile mix of undeniable talent and deep-rooted insecurity took her to the heights of fame.
Dinah Sings Blazing Ballads is a new compilation of her best ballad performances, and finds her backed by such stars as Clark Terry, Cannonball Adderley, Wynton Kelly, and orchestras conducted by Quincy Jones and Don Costa. Sessions recorded New York between 1959 and 1962.
