Dorothy DandridgeSmooth Operator Release Date: 1999 07 20 Running Time: 47:04 Label: Verve Rating: ![]() |
Smooth Operator explores a little-known aspect of the beautiful, troubled African-American actress Dorothy Dandridge: her vocal abilities. Most of this album comes from a 1958 recording session featuring Dandridge's lovely interpretations of "When Your Lover Has Gone," "Body & Soul" and the title track. That her backing band is an augmented version of the Oscar Peterson Trio makes her album even more special, and a must for jazz fans and film buffs. Heather Phares, All Music Guide
