Toni Lynn Washington

I Wanna Dance

2015-09-17

Another great Cd by Toni Lynn Washington. This one is a little interesting for her though as there are some cover tunes on here from some very well known musicians. Track 7 is a nice cover tune of Tracy Chapman's "Gimmie One Reason." They really put their blues/soul spin on this one. More than likely the best track on this album in my opinion is the cover they did of Buddy Guys "Leave My (Man) Alone." I really like the arrangement they had on this one with the sax and such. Just super smooth. I thought this album was pretty good, i would give it an above average rating despite the non-originals that are on the album
