Dee Dee Bridgewater - Compared To What

[1969SL]

Music - specially original - is absolutely classic. Even video clip is quite interesting thought somehow it takes away from the very important lyrics - all these effects get in the way - the lady is ok,at least she recognizes a quality song

She reminds me of TIna Turner when she just divorced Ike.

Dee Dee is A-amazin!

Roberta Flack's version cleans the floor with Dee Dee.

@Surlamontaigne

if your on qualudes, maybe. This video (like most) is unworthy of the music though.

[ennui406]

One of my all-time favorite tunes, and she does a decent job.
