Dinah Washington – Dinah! (1955)

Dinah! is a fourth studio album by blues, R&B and jazz singer Dinah Washington released on the EmArcy label. The album includes a mix of jazz, popular and blues standards of the period, all selected to emphasize the vocalist’s style.

A masterful album by the great singer Dinah Washington accompanied phenomenally by the magnificent arrangements of the Hall Money orchestra. A paradigmatic example of how to accompany a jazz singer: without ornaments or absurd mannerisms. The singer takes advantage of this magnificent performance by the orchestra to record one of her best albums for the Emarcy label.
