Back to square one for Denise Eileen Garrett a.k.a. Dee Dee Bridgewater: Memphis! The very city where she was born on the May 27th, 1950. The Frenchiest American singer releases here a tribute to one of the United States’ most musical city. A city she left with her parents at three old to move to industrial Flint, in Michigan. But her career proves that those three years were enough to shape the rest. Recorded in the famous Royal Studios in Memphis, and produced by Kirk Whalum and Lawrence Mitchell (grandson of Hi Records’ Willie Mitchell), the album gathers together carefully selected local gems of soul and blues. Classics interpreted for instance by Otis Redding (Try A Little Tenderness), B.B. King (The Thrill Is Gone), Soul Children (The Sweeter He Is written by Isaac Hayes and Dave Porter), Elvis Presley (Don’t Be Cruel and Hound Dog), Carla Thomas (B-A-B-Y also by the Hayes/Porter duo) and Al Green (I Can't Get Next To You written by Barrett Strong), to which Dee Dee Bridgewater gives her trademark and immensely enjoyable boosts. After celebrating New Orleans in Dee Dee’s Feathers, here comes another tribute, equally classy, perhaps groovier and with more dancing, but which demonstrates that everything her voice touches usually turns to gold.
