Revered by the early aficionados of soul music the splendid Justine “Baby” Washington is one of the most underrated R&B queens of the late 1950s and 1960s. Still musically active at age 75 she has delivered her songs with passionate conviction throughout her storied career. Washington never enjoyed much pop attention but equaled Dionne Warwick and Maxine Brown among female light soul singers. Despite her lack of smashes Washington is acknowledged as one of the finest rhythm’n’blues vocalists of her time capable of delivering Harlem soul as well as doo-wop rockers blues jazz and pop with equal aplomb.
This special release includes 30 studio tracks consisting of a selection of the sensational recordings Washington made for the oft-overlooked Sue J&S and Neptune labels as well as for the major ABC-Paramount between 1958 and 1962. Twelve of these splendid songs would conform Washington’s debut LP the iconic That’s How Heartaches are Made originally issued by Sue Records. All of these great songs have been remastered in this collector’s edition which gives ample proof of Baby Washington’s versatility as well as her rightful place in the R&B and early soul pantheon.

“BABY” WASHINGTON lead vocals plus: The orchestras of Marty Edwards Bert Keyes and Sammy Love among others. Further personnel information is detailed inside booklet.
Recorded in New York between 1958 and 1962. Original recordings produced by Juggy Murray or Bert Berns.
