1. Feb 24,  · Warning! This is not an album for jazz purists. But it is the album that took Miss Washington from a relatively unknown blues singer and catapulted her to fame in America, becoming her first long player to make the Billboard charts (No and 22 weeks on the chart). The orchestral settings by Belford Hendicks are by no means ground breaking, yet there’s no keeping a great voice .

3. This fairly arbitrary album features a track by Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers with Buddy Rich from April 23, , seven tracks by Dinah Washington & Her Trio circa , and three tracks by the Dizzy Gillespie 6 from May 6, , all recorded live at Birdland in New York City. The result is pleasant but hardly revelatory or essential.

8. Dinah' s "All Of Me" swings along easily in her own style - so very different from the mass of routinely sung bar-room performances. Her version of "Clifford", a ballad for Clifford Brown, a musical compatriot who died young, is probably one of the most expressive obituaries in the whole world of jazz literature.
