Album Notes A truly diverse artist, New Orleans-born Linda Hopkins sang blues, gospel, jazz, R&B, and more, and came to be regarded as an American musical treasure. This collection documents her 1950s work, including performances with bandleader Johnny Otis, and tracks done with the legendary songwriting/production team of Lieber & Stoller. Hopkins proves equally adept here at soulful crooning and blues belting.
Editorial Reviews 3 stars out of 5 -- She thrived in a big band setting and her Savoy tracks show her to be a supreme torch singer, total in command of intense urban blues. Record Collector
