I will be in touch soon! thanks for this openness and love for international music! and thanks for uploading this masterpiece
In my living room sitting in the dark, basking in Dorothy Ashby's world it's so mystical.......
One of my favourite albums of all time. There is also a companion album called "Aranjuez" that contain more tracks from the same sessions as "Django/Misty". As far as I know, these were the only recordings she made that featured her playing solo harp. They were recorded shortly before she passed away from cancer and were only released in Japan, which is why not a lot of people know about them. Some critics dismissed these late recordings as lackluster compared to her peak period "Hip Harp" "Afro Harpin" "Rubaiyat", but I think they form a magnificent coda to an illustrious career, and prove that she had lost none of her skill even at the end. It's just a shame that it's taken so long for people to finally acknowledge her talent.
Dorothy would have appreciated your heartfelt narrative🤙
wow.. i had no idea the story behind these recordings. Sad and very beautiful. thank you so much for providing context to one of my favorite albums of all time as well. Hope you're having a great day :)
Yes thank you for the added information
these notes fall like perfectly timed rain drops on a hot summer day.
The leaves are turning golden now. Still perfect.
Wow... this is such a perfect description...
Smooth like the music
What a beautiful image your words conjure - perfectly timed raindrops :-)
exactly
If anyone was wondering about the Japanese text on the left, it roughly translates to "As refreshing as the morning sun, Dorothy Ashby - Queen of Jazz Harp"
Edit: The first part should actually be the title of the song "Softly, as in a Morning Sunrise"
Thank you. Then it might refer to the song "Softly, as in a morning sunrise" :)
@@danielevendrame9350 Whoops, I somehow missed that it was the name of a song, thanks for the correction
I was not surprised to read about Dorothy Ashby's interest in koto music and instrument. I see the interest is mutual and I would'nt be surprised her albums are uber-cool in Japan. And personally, I hope Takemitsu knew of her music, because I'm certain her would have loved it.
Thank you! 🌺
My Husband played this jazz for me during labor 😘
Congratulations!
Love this
Hot stressful day, with loud neighbors doing loud auto engine stuff, stressful family arguing at each other & stomping on the floor right above me, but I knew just what to do; draw the drapes, turn on the fan, stretch out on my bed with my wonderful fur baby bulldog, sip on a glass of champagne (hey, it is a Friday late afternoon, after all), & tune into some Dorothy Ashby, ahhh~ Thank you so much, Marcel the Drunkard, for being part of this prescription!
this was the best 35 minutes of my life
I feel like a fool - I consider myself knowledgeable in the jazz arena - do how come I've never heard of Dorthy Ashby? No reference to, or recommendation of? What the hell? Just per chance, happened to bump on to her name on UTube...what a find. She had it going on in a big way...can't wait to hear more of her, & I will!
So many great musicians out there, now and in the past. This one, Dorothy Ashby, did not achieve fame, yet I bet she knew she "had it". Her recordings reveal a great talent to those of us who never knew her or saw her play. This solo album is outstanding.
check out the wikipedia bio. facts abound!

I have never heard of Dorothy Ashby until today. I was listening to Alice Coltrane and in the comments someone mentioned Dorothy's name and I'm glad they did. This is beautiful
same here. bonito!!!!!!
haha. same :D
Sorry man ,
Two underappreciated Queens
Same!!!
Love when I'm looking for samples and end up actually listening to what I find.
hank You so much for Dorothys celestial Jazz! - I am 70ty now and had 1 LPRecord, >Jazz on Harp< by D.A. in the very late 60ties! Unfortunately circumstances seperated me of it and it seems >I had "forgotten" that swing for decades! Don't know why! BUT: - A few years ago I only found little of her on youtube, but now ....! Wow! What an earfeast!
hands down, the best of the popular genre harpists. nobody did jazz like dorothy, not on the harp.
its hard to comprehend or compare such beautiful music, pushes the boundaries of what sounds a single human is capable of producing
Listening on April 2, 2020. Sweet and calming sounds while pandemic rages on
I'm hearing so many lofi songs in this whole album. it's awesome to find the original. it's gold
was listening to Afro harping all these years not realizing this existed, thanks for upload!
Dorothy Ashby, "You Go Girl!!" Simply, effortlessly, beautiful.
Giving credit where credit is due, Dorothy Ashby is as wonderful as she is underrepresented. Hard to think that this choice of harp is partially due to male musicians putting pressure on women not to play the same instruments as men. Imagine someone telling you which instruments you can or cannot play. Great job in spite of that oppressive trend.
I've just discovered this woman's wonderful music and I'm in love. Thanks for posting. Greetings from Mexico!
God, i always loved Round Midnight, and this version... Wordless.
Amazing ethereal music ☁️🍃
Django is part of my life’s soundtrack. First time I heard it was on the Hot House Flowers Album by Wynton Marsalis. But wow, do I love Ms. Ashby’s version.!!! Like air.
Another one of my favorites is Grant Green’s version on Idle Moments.
idk why im cryin in the club rn
Because you have soul
A sound that brings peace to the very heart of the spul.
Encore une belle découverte...du grand talent et une écoute renouvellée de grands classiques du jazz..respect
I came here to look for something to sample to my Akai MPC during a cold,
snowy night and instead I made a cup of tea and ended up listening to
this whole album haha. I just love Jazz music, cheers!
Thanks again I had never heard of Dorothy Ashby
before and I just loved this album, thanks again. The joys of record digging and/or youtube, find some amazing artists you never would have found :)

archival propensities
Wow. Absolutely Brilliant. Exactly what I needed in this moment.
thanks for sharing these recordings with us calmrad, lots of rare greats
+Thomas Aquarius I'm glad you're enjoying the uploads! ;)
wow never heard this album before either but i keep recognizing snippets from songs that have sampled it... now i know where all those songs found their melodies.. love it!
carboncastles I have the same feeling. All the time I feel like it's a song I know.
carboncastles nujables? Onra?
do nujabes & onra sample this album? what songs are you thinking of?
django - hexsagon was the first one i recognized, then capture l'oiseau - ours samplus, both great reworks of dorthy's beautiful melodies
I recognized Round Midnight immediately, it was sampled in G Mills - Milk and Honey
Amor en paz is also(Astrud Gilberto/A.C. Jobim)-Once I loved. And I gave so much love to this love, It was the world to me. Once I cried At the thought I was foolish and proud And let you say goodbye. Then one day, From my infinite sadness, you came And brought me love again. Now I know That no matter whatever befalls, I'll never let you go. I will hold you close... Night and day... Because love Is the saddest thing When it goes away. I will hold you close... Make you stay... Because love Is the saddest thing When it goes away. Because love Is the saddest thing When it goes away. Goes away...
