4.0 out of 5 stars
Nice R&B and B, September 18, 2011
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.
