Two Steps From The Blues
CD (Item 53058) Duke, Early 60s — Condition: New Copy
The masterpiece! This album is a monumental work in the early soul vein that Bobby pioneered, and did better than anyone else. The arrangements are perfect, and Bobby's rough soulful voice is blended in this amazing way with killer horn arrangements that are far more sophisticated than most stuff that ever came after this, and which never get in the way, but only back up his deep emotion. The album's a motherlode of classics by the man, with "Two Steps From The Blues", "Cry Cry Cry", and "I Pity The Fool". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
