Dinah Washington - Gold
Review by An Thanh
Gold by Dinah Washington is a timeless album that showcases the incredible talent and versatility of this legendary jazz vocalist. From the sultry and soulful ballads to the upbeat and swinging numbers, every track on this album is a masterpiece.
The album opens with the classic tune "What a Difference a Day Makes," which immediately sets the tone for the rest of the record. Washington's voice is smooth and powerful, effortlessly gliding over the lush orchestration. Other standout tracks include "I Wanna Be Loved," a playful and flirtatious number, and "Call Me Irresponsible," a poignant ballad that showcases Washington's emotional depth and range.
Throughout the album, Washington's impeccable phrasing and vocal control are on full display. Her voice is both powerful and delicate, conveying a range of emotions with ease. The arrangements are also top-notch, with a mix of big band and small group settings that perfectly complement Washington's voice.

My mom used to song and her rendition was amazing.
Just divine music. Giants of music.
Comes on like smoke
Drifts in
Conjures like magic
The old radio from the far room
Speaks to the ages

Just beautiful. Way before computer generated music aka auto tune, singers actually had to have beautiful voices.
Rod stewart sings a good version of this song ?. Dinah Washington R.I.P.
Sigo dando gracias al YouTube. Dios mío, qué tales cantantes, fuera de serie, extraordinarios, maravillosos.
Dina Washington, grande de grandes.

She had the most phenomenal voice I ever heard! The greatest female singer of them all.

the Amazing Dinah Washington.....
Alas, the vulgarisation of modern American music culture is such a pity…
What gems to lift the human spirit to special places of reflection we have lost.
