- Dorothy Ashby – Soul Vibrations
- Dorothy Ashby – Come Live With Me
Definitive deep funky album from harpist Dorothy Ashby. Excellent late 60's soulful jazz harp recorded for Chess with arrangements by Richard Evans and a killer (unknown) line-up! Samples galore, from "Soul Vibrations" and "Come Live With Me", plus a version of "Little Sunflower". Like an earlier version of Alice Cotrane's seminal 70s releases on Impulse.
Dorothy AshbyThe Rubaiyat Of Dorothy AshbyDecca
Absolutely SEMINAL deep funk and jazz and from harpist Dorothy Ashby.
Perhaps lesser known than Alice Coltrane, Dorothy Ashby remains the best-kept secret...
