Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

 Just the one cut.

I heard Blue Monk on the radio, and wanted to find out more. So I just downloaded that one cut. Larry Campbell's guitar stuff is killer. So what if she's a little over the hill? This still gets me where I want to got.
So I worked out the guitar stuff in A, am learning the lyrics, and may give it a shot the next time I do an open mike night somewhere.
I guess I should listen to the rest of the album.

| Abbey Lincoln's CD, Abbey Sings Abbey, is prolific and tests the skills of not only one of our most creative multidimensional artists, but also the skills of all her accompanists. This particular recording blends traditional blues, clearly-heard Zydeco chords, jazz, and all-around personal tales to share with all of us. Listening to this CD allows the mind and emotions of every individual the chance to strengthen his/her inner peace and to go deep in introspection. Abbey's voice has now turned to a gorgeous burnt umber, deep in inflections, wide-ranging, and based on actual experience in living. I would suggest buying this CD for persons who enjoy all musical types. |

| Old line jazz vocals meets Larry Campbell's astute production values- a treat for sore ears |

| .. when an ageing Jazz Diva wants to sound like the successful performers of the present at all costs: a well respected Jazz singer of 40 years winds up as an epigone to Norah Jones. Imperfect diction included. Must have been the idea of some clever product placement manager to record this album. But still 2 stars for people who like popcountryjazz-kitsch. |
