Ella Washington

A superb Southern spirit vocalist, Ella Washington was another performer whose design was so natural and intense it had little potential for attracting any interest beyond your R&B globe. She also documented for various little labels who have been never in a position to break her tunes, even inside the spirit arena. Her greatest material was carried out in the past due ’60s and early ’70s, a lot of it made by famous disk jockey John Richbourg, for Monument’s Audio Stage 7 label. Washington experienced a unitary, “The Grass Is definitely Greener,” leased to Atlantic from Octavia, but her 1969 self-titled LP didn’t fare well, although she got great response from your single “He Known as Me Baby/Quit Providing Your Man Away.”
