Ask A Woman Who Knows

To be honest, there are some stern folk for whom Natalie Cole will never be forgiven for the overdubbed mega-hit duets she recorded with her late father. That would be a shame for them, because they’d miss out on the fact that Cole, as she’s spent the years since the aforementioned hits proving, is one damn fine standards singer. She’s got it all; a confident, relaxed delivery, an easy sense of swing, and of course unerring range and chops. On ASK A WOMAN WHO KNOWS, her first recording for famed jazz label Verve, she displays her gifts with grace and consistency, whether she’s simmering over the Brazilian-tinged “Tell Me All About It” or moving mellifluously through the BAGHDAD CAFE tune “Calling You.” Try to forget “Unforgettable” and see what’s going down here....
