Possessor of an extraordinary voice, in 1958 Time Magazine described her: \"The voice is pure, rich and carries the dusky legato that still echoes the New Orleans of forty years ago... as rare as a 20 carat diamond. \"This compilation pairs up her first two LPs, Trouble In Mind (1957) and Livin' With The Blues (1959), plus a trio of contemporaneous bonus tracks, recorded in 1956. For many years her early recordings were unavailable in any format; this is the first time these sides have been thus paired up. Described as \"America's Great Lost\/Forgotten Icon\", she is only now, belatedly, receiving due acknowledgement. Barbara still records and performs occasionally; in 2017 she headlined a gig at UCLA's Royce Hall, in Los Angeles, in honour of her 90th birthday\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49213603709170,"sku":"JSMR8101225.2","price":14.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/3898247.jpg?v=1778908069","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/dane-barbara-trouble-in-mind-livin-with-the-blues-music-cd-604988101225","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
