DAKOTA STATON - Dynamic! (1958-2006) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Singer Dakota Staton's follow-up album to The Late Late Show (her big hit) is even better and still stands as one of the highpoints of her career. Backed on some selections by trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison and either a rhythm section or an orchestra, Staton (who turned 26 around this time) is heard throughout in peak form. She really tears into "Let Me off Uptown," puts plenty of feeling into "When Sunny Gets Blue" and swings hard on "Cherokee." Other highlights include "They All Laughed," "Say It Ain't So, Joe," "Too Close for Comfort" and "It Could Happen to You." Scott Yanow
