ABBEY LINCOLN IS A NATIONAL TREASURE,
By
This review is from: Who Used to Dance (Audio CD)
Here is an artist with the courage and conviction to go her own way in music, life and vision. What a blessing it is to follow her over the years! I have owned this album since its release. Every time I listen I am struck with wonder by her wonderfully nuanced readings of these songs. Abbey Lincoln is more than a singer and an actress. Abbey Lincoln is a national treasure. Let's celebrate her and her music while we still have her.

Abbey Lincoln is at the top of her form here. The songs she penned are beautiful and heartfelt.. "The River" is one of my favorite tracks on this album and it is also the most fun. The cover of "Mr. Tamborine Man" is quintencentially Abbey Lincoln.

proof of type of singing abbey can't be beaten at,
By A Customer
This review is from: Who Used to Dance (Audio CD)
abbey lincoln has a very recognizable voice and phrasing. You either love it or not but she best at it. Most of her cd's sound a like however, and to be surprising every new cd she should come up with an unexpected angle to her wide capacities which she unarguably has. i can listen to her endlessly but she needs to be refreshing for a wider audience.
