I REALLY see how Amy Winehouse learned from Dinah Washington... The phrasing, the breath.... just stunning. A Legend learning from a Legend. RIP to both of these songbirds.

Winehouse always claimed Washington as an influencer. Not doubt Dinah was. But to my ear, Amy Winehouse is not a Washington-type singer. Winehouse is a combination of Billie Holiday and the late Tiny Turner.

@ceeceetracey98394 жыл бұрын
I was just getting ready to say that. I read a bio on her and she considered herself ugly and fat. its been a minute since I read it so i dont remember all the details. The problem was that during that time darker skin was shunned, especially in the entertainment business. Lena Horne and Dorothy Dandridge and anyone or anything else light skinned was "ideal" at the time and and I guess it made Ms. Washington insecure.

Her dramatic weight loss, which to my knowledge she achieved with diet pills, also wrecked her voice. There is a clear distinction between her voice pre-weight loss and her voice post-weight loss.

Because she came up before the black is beautiful campaign in the USA. Even today in most places outside of the states black skin and overweight is considered ugly. Black Americans did a lot of work to lift the conscious of the nation.

Billie Holiday too. She wasn't a classically trained singer, but she possessed a unique voice that sounded like the instrumentation that played behind her. Her phrasing was was awesome. It's heartbreaking that she fell into that dark hole of addiction and abuse and her beautiful light was turned off. But her music still lives on. Rest well Lady Day🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊

Love the sweet roll and pepperjack cheese reference! So true about her phrasing, and also her intonation was spot-on! IMHO, Dinah Washington belongs up there with Ella, Sarah, and Billie on the Mount Rushmore of female jazz greats.

A super star in her career, one which the "rat pack" all went hear their idol sing, and of course wanted her to part of the pack as an ancillary member. Was greater than she new. She made the pack, would attend private parties do duets along with, can you imagine: sing with Sinatra, Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., also lyrist/pianist jimmy Van Heusen all night party for the star, she established life long friends. She carries the show despite the second tier band, later the best of the best, she's now a legend.
