Editorial Reviews
Ruth Brown was an American entertainment icon, the first bona fide star of the nascent rhythm and blues era in the early 1950s, an actress in John Waters' original Hairspray, an Tony-winning Broadway star, and a Grammy®-winning recording artist. These recordings are taken from her final two Grammy®-nominated albums. They're a musical highpoint of her long career - witty, sophisticated and swinging - with an all-star New Orleans-centered band in support.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Nice R&B and B,
This review is from: Essential Recordings: Ms B's Blues (Audio CD)
If you're a Ruth Brown completist, this is not a compilation for you, for it spans onla to Brown albums, but it is a GREAT collection of R&B, blues (and such)...
Musicians are fine, you can also hear a very nice duet with Bonnie Rait (a beautiful female version of the blues/jazz classic "I'm gonna move to the outskirts of town"; so far I've only heard it sung by men - Witherspoon, Rushing and such)... Since I'm primarily a jazz fan, this compilation is perfect for me (and it was quite cheap in a CD shop in my town), blues and rythm and blues fans might want to get the wider-scope compilations, or get the complete albums... The lady is hot in both cases.
