One of Dorothy Ashby's earliest and most stripped-down recordings. Here she leads a trio with bassist Herman Wright and drummer John Tooley, showcasing the harp in a distinctly jaz zy, soulful way — far from classical, closer to bass and guitar. The Chess/Argo sound captures her Detroit roots beautifully. Features her originals "John R" and "Booze" alongside jazz standards like "Django," "Gloomy Sunday," and "Lil Darlin." Show more
