Product description
When it comes to legendary jazz vocalists, Abbey Lincoln is up there with the best of them. Her 1961 album "Straight Ahead" is a dazzling display of her incredible talent and charisma. From the moment you press play, you are transported to a smoky jazz club in the heart of New York City. Lincoln's voice is like a warm embrace, inviting you to sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you. Her rich, soulful tones are perfectly complemented by the impeccable playing of her band, including the likes of Kenny Dorham on trumpet and Wynton Kelly on piano. The album kicks off with the title track, a bluesy number that sets the tone for what's to come. Lincoln's delivery is raw and honest, drawing you in with every word she sings. Tracks like "Blue Monk" and "Not in Love" showcase her versatility as a vocalist, while the haunting "African Lady" is a poignant reminder of her activism and passion for civil rights. Overall, "Straight Ahead" is a timeless classic that deserves a place in every jazz lover's collection. Abbey Lincoln may have left us, but her music lives on, and this album is a testament to her enduring legacy. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sit back, and let Abbey Lincoln take you on a journey straight ahead. Cheers, darling!
