Hip Harp Dorothy Ashby USEDÂ LP IN LIKE NEW CONDITION
reissue Great
stuff by the grooviest artist ever to play a harp! Dorothy Ashby had a
unique soul jazz harp sound, and although the instrument she used is
probably more thought of in terms of bedtime lullabies, she actually
makes it swing nicely, and with a soulful sound that draws back to
traditions of African stringed instruments. Ashby
was part of the same scene as Yusef Lateef, and like Lateef, she
managed to use odd instrumentation in new contexts, to get a very unique
jazz sound. This set's got harp and flute in the lead, and features the tracks "Pawky", "Charmaine", "Jollity", and "Back Talk". Also reissued with the original cover art!
