One of the 1st rhythm and blues superstars, Ruth Brown's career has taken her from the Apollo Theatre to Broadway - and, at age 70, Ruth shows no signs of slowing down. In 1997 she was nominated for a Grammy Award and won a W.C. Handy Award for her Bullseye Blues & Jazz debut, R+B = Ruth Brown. Recorded in New Orleans with an all-star band, this new recording finds Ruth at the peak of her communicative powers, exploring the territory between blues and jazz.
