Spellbound Music present a reissue of
Dorothy Ashby
's sixth album,
The Fantastic Jazz Harp Of Dorothy Ashby
, originally released in 1965. Ashby was a Detroit born jazz harpist who passed away in her early 50s in 1986. She left a rich legacy of music with
The Fantastic Jazz Harp Of Dorothy Ashby
being one of her milestones. The music is purely bright and swinging with a joyful mood. Dorothy Ashby is always there upfront while the brass section mostly fills the background with color. Typical for the ancient jazz, there are no vocals on this record but this only adds to the depth and intriguing atmosphere of the music. Ashby starts where
Coltrane
left the field of real song-oriented albums for his experimental efforts and she really pulls it off.
The Fantastic Jazz Harp Of Dorothy Ashby
is haunting but with a rather relaxed approach to this style. For the time it was released, this album was an utterly progressive effort and the pop sensibility of many tracks make it a great joy to spin. Jazz fans will dig it and open minded people who love the music of the '60s will also develop a fondness for this beauty.
