5.0 out of 5 stars
Exellent thru and thru...,
This review is from: Good Day for the Blues (Audio CD)
Miss Ruth brown was and still is the Queen of R&B. Of course these are not her classic Atlantic jump blues sides, and you can't compare this cd to her classic 50's songs like Mama He Treads Your Daughter Mean, and this Little girls Gone Rockin'. However listen to thsi cd for what it is, a great modern day blues cd, by a wonderful, still going strong singer. Brown doesn't squeel anymore, but she soes still posess a certian excitement and charm. I had the pleasure of seeing her live in Las Vegas in 2003, and she still rocks, and most of her audience was 20 somethings with pompadours and girls in poodle skirts. Brown really has a following with the rockabilly crowd, and listen to this cd and you'll see why it attacts us 20 somethings, and not just old fogies. A exellent 5 star worthy pure fun blues party cd, Brown is still in fine voice!

This review is from: Good Day for the Blues (Audio CD)
I met Ruth at the Cotton Club in Washington, DC in 1956 or 58 at a very hard time in my life. I was a dancer and she had a voice that hushed the traffic on Benning Rd, NE! This lady brought a new strain of blues to the forum, best and most unique since Alberta Hunter. I reside in So. Calif and would give my new dental bridge to see her again (and meet her son). Thanks to Amazon for restoring a wonderful part of my live. Bev H

Good, But Not Her Best,

This review is from: Good Day for the Blues (Audio CD)
This CD is okay, but Ruth doesn't shine on this CD as much as others. There are some really good tracks on this CD, but a few silly ones. However, I've listened to quite a bit of Ruth's music, so my opinion may be colored by my experience with other albums. Better CDs include "Live in London", "Fine & Mellow", and maybe even "Blues on Broadway". Ruth is one of the greatest female vocalists ever.
