Dorothy Ashby was probably the greatest—and certainly the most swinging—jazz harpist of all time, re-purposing an instrument best known for ethereal glissandos into a fully versatile voice in combo settings, capable of providing both instrumental embroidery and rhythmic drive. But she was always fighting an uphill battle in terms of garnering critical and commercial success; both her gender and the exoticism of her instrument often prevented her from being taken seriously among the hidebound environs of late ‘50s and ‘60s jazz. But it is that very uniqueness of her sound and station in the jazz world that has made her one of the most collectible musicians of her era, as her music has been sampled and celebrated by modern-day hip hop and world music artists (e.g. Jurassic Five, Bonobo) alike. In a Minor Groove is one of two albums she made in 1958 with flautist/saxophonist Frank Wess, and it is a marvel; backed by fellow Detroit native Herman Wright on bass and the great Roy Haynes on drums, she and Wess weave mesmerizing melodic threads through standards like “Alone Together” and “Yesterdays.” But perhaps the most amazing track is “Bohemia After Dark,” which displays Ashby’s uncanny ability to turn her harp into a rhythm guitar!

Pretty good for price
Color: 5 Pack
Super nice! It makes my skin feel soft. The only thing is that it starts to get gray. I tried hand washing it, and putting it through the wash and it doesn’t come out.

Toddler loofah set worth the buy !
Color: Frog&strawberry
The cutest loofah set I could find! So soft, thick, and my kids love the theme. I love how the bundle is, it’s perfect for my son and daughter. The sponges are not rough on their skin and are very durable!

Made very well!~!
Color: Frog&strawberry, Color: Frog&strawberry
Arrived as pictured. Boxed nice and cute. Suitable to send as a gift or for retail sales. These are not only adorable but wash very well. My grandson and I both like them. He said the strawberry was for me and he took the frog. I normally have to bribe him to bathe but all I have to say is froggy is waiting and he runs in!~!~ I love my strawberry and it really cleans well. Such fun and I'm delighted with them both. The size is perfect and I'm grateful. We have been using them for awhile to and they have held up like new. Worth the cost and priced very fair.
