- Jazz Docu - Dinah Washington - Evil Gal Blues
........................................................
Dinah Washington was perhaps the best American blues singer of the 1940s, jazz singer of the 50s and pop singer of the early 60s, and has been called the female Ray Charles. Raised on gospel and blues in black Chicago, she had just crossed over into the white mainstream with songs like What a Difference a Day Makes and Mad About the Boy when she died at just 39. It was a life of excess - too many pills, parties, mink coats and husbands. In this film, her life and music are assessed by people who knew her well and singers who love her, such as Amy Winehouse.

I had dinner with Lionel Hampton once in the south of France back around '97. He said he went to Chicago and was looking for a singer, and the club owner said "well, i got a girl who works in the bathroom and whenever the band starts up she sings pretty good". Hamp said "send her round to my rehearsal tomorrow". She went and sang, and Hamp asked her what her name was. She said "Ruth Jones". Hamp said "How about if we call you Dinah Washington?". Hamp told me she responded "You can call me whatever you want, Mr. Hampton, as long as you put me in your band!".
Dinah sang with such fire and sass . Also she had a swinging delivery.
She epitomized soul In every she sang .
So was so great !
One of the very few artists my granny asked me to buy a CD for, so Ms. Washington HAD to have made an impression! I love her music. What a voice. And I'm 2 generations removed. RIP, ma'am. Thank you.
I swear Dinah Washington and Loretta Devine favor each other.
Yes they do
wow they do
Wow, I was just thinking about an actress who could play her biopic movie! That'd be the perfect casting! Or, Octavia Spencer! Maybe Lizzo!
My parents who were part of Dinahs generation said the same thing
I was thinking the same thing….Loretta could definitely do her biopic
I AM WAITING FOR THE MOVIE ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN AND YES!!! LORETTA Devine would be perfect in the role♥️
Or...Octavia Spencer!
My parents just love her records! I learned later that singer Esther Phillips was cared for by Diana! Esther sounded just like her! Esther talked about how she was influenced by Diana Washington! I was guitarist in a band of friends who backed Esther up for a few years
This was a wonderful documentary . I just wish they had included the late great Mr. BROOKE BENTON. A Rockin Good Way was my favorite song they did together.
He had a fabulous voice. Underrated.
U can't teach that!! Sum things are God given. Absolutely soulful. ❤
Your so right a talent beyond comparison. I could listen to her 24/7. 💕💕
Thank you for sharing, Dinah, with all her fans. 💋
Her voice was strong 😮❤😊
September in the rain, her best
I remember when I got the bad news that she passed away and later I acquired two of her cds. She was an awesome singer
I just loved her SPARKLE!!! ❤❤❤
Okay so it ended abruptly but I was very young in the 50’s and loved Dinah. She had some hits doing duo’s with Brook Benton. Yes Dinah was fantastic. R. I.P.
She's EVERYTHING!
You just have to meet the right person. A church where she use to sing. She looked great as a blond. She was living like Elvis. That’s sad she was only with him a few minutes. It might of lasted. It’s a shame she still isn’t around. There’s life in her singing. She is so joyful❤
I adore this woman
All-time GREATEST!!
great show
She was perfection
I love me some Dinah Washington. She and Nina Simone are similar in a lot of ways they both have very super unique soulful voices and could sing other genres of music easily.
Queen!! 👑
Thanks for posting this!!!
She moves me deeply.
me too. I just love her.
The absolutely best 😊
Love it.
Thanks so much for this absolutely wonderful documentary! I’ve always loved her music and unique vocals but this video shinned a light on her dynamic personality and amazing life. Yes, she did die very young but it seems like she lived it to the fullest 💗
This BBC original programming Doesn't have it up anymore and I really appreciate this posting. I believe this is a pretty genuine representation Of Dinah Washington . Worth watching twice
Nice to see a healthy Amy Winehouse.
Reading that Aretha loved her was the hook) Evil gal blues. Sad the booze and pills get the best of us(
She have piano fingers so I'm sure she was good and those vocals are music to my ears.
I would Lilias White to the list. Added bonus she can SANG!
I put her in the category with Billie Holiday totally different style
We used to go to a jazz club in Yonkers.
I heard some wild stories about her From people that knew her personally.
You didn’t want to upset her😡
❤
I love when she said "play so and so you b***h. Heheheheeh. What a strong woman.
Dinah was certainly on the short list of the greatest female singers but i would not place her above Billie or Ella.....or maybe Carmen,,,but hey i wont argue with anyone who thinks different...she was that good
Does anybody know the name of the last song before the doc ends? please! i've been trying to find it
Blue skies
wow! she even dates a Dominican man.
What was the name of the song she sang whensing about her wood man was a good man and her ice man was a nice man
I hope her last husband didnt kill her.
I can listen to Dinah all day long. And have. 😁😁😁
Me too.
Currently have her on repeat.
me too!
Greatest female singer ever. Her song choices are also greatest. Ive been listening to Elvis since childhood, and never liked female voices...until one night in Paris France I heard the voice of an angel. Dinah Washington .❤🌍👏
2:20 Dinah sporting her Frau Antje look - Echte blues uit de VS!
She looks great as a blond! You only live once so why not experiment with any color. Wow 9 husbands. I can hardly handle one man. Wow! Mink toilet seat why not?! She was evil. I can’t hardly believe that. Great singer. So much oomph! So much feeling. So wonderful! She is wonderful. I love her singing anything. I never knew her personal life. I just loved all of her songs and singing. Wish I could have met her. I think she is great! Church must of been great. We have lost such great singers. It’s so sad all of them are passing away. I have never been to that kind of church. Sounds so up lifting. So beautiful. What a breathless singer. So moving. So loving. Boy that must of been exciting listening to them both sing. Sorry grandma. But she was so spectacular. She had such a gift. Grandma sounded like a typical grandma. Caring and sweet. I love Billie holiday is great too. 18. Wow. Started her career. That’s. Wonderful. Maybe she couldn’t afford anything else. Why were they so mean to blacks? I don’t get it. I have seen it. And I don’t put up with it from anybody. I am white and I have been accused of being against blacks and that is so wrong. I have respect for all people no matter who they are. And I have been unfairly judged. I try to be nice to everyone. Her singing is so much fun and risque’. She is so missed. I listen to her every day. She is not fat! Who said she was fat? She looks lovely. Men always cheat. They can sometimes be dogs. Dogs are even better. That’s right. They were not as good as her. She was thrown down stairs that’s horrible! That husband ought to be in jail. If you got it spend it. You can’t take it with you when you die. Queen of bling. Crown and fur. That’s great. The band sucked. Why didn’t they leave her alone. She didn’t look heavy. Diet. That’s all people think about. Just to look bone thin. Sounds like elvis diet. Why didn’t the band leave her alone? Pigs! She is so great. She just doesn’t realize how great she is. I think her voice is so lovely. Her voice is snappy like a party!it’s easy to sing along with her. Why did Amy whinehouse do drugs? She was a queen of jazz and blues. I like people like her. That’s called outspoken. My mom and I always loved people like that. Hookers have it hard. What away to live. Just hanging on. What a way to make a living. 200 pairs of shoes. I can see it. You have to dress great. She probably liked the attention. She was having fun. Romantic singing. Fire. And flame. She was magic. Whinehouse put her flame out! Drugs did her in. I hope was clean. She was mesmerizing when she sang. This bitter earth. What good is love
Loretta Devine should have played her in a movie..I wish they would put a full documentary out on Netflix..
I ABSOLUTELY agee with you 100 percent!!!!!
I remember when I got the news she passed. After I Aquired one of her cds and after listening to it I cried . I missed her. I was looking forward to her next album. It was not meant to be

Stewart's photographs have graced more than 2,000 album covers. Source Wikipedia
Thanks, for the info on Charles Stewart. I had never heard of him and I love photographs of jazz and blues singers.
22:17🥲🔥❤️ yo tha was Amy’s inspiration,fr crazy to c her in this
I was today years old discovering this legend I knew the name but that's it
In the same sonic drawer as Judy Garland and Kay Starr, irrepressible belters and velvety balladeers, sublime singing ladies.
Go girl!!!
Amy can’t talk much less sing.
