    wonderful.

    as a younger person, I spent a lot of time "staring" at the cover for Hasten Down the Wind.

    Dusty Springfield - Dusty in Memphis

    Honestly would shortlist it for most beautifuly lush recorded albums ever from the absolute zenith of the golden age of record production.

    Maybe because its kind of a 1 off and she did a bunch of sunny vapid British pop otherwise, it kind of gets lost but it is genuinely special.

    Rather than suggest Ella Fitzgerald albums, I will give some songs.



    The Video and Audio seem a bit out of Synch.





    You didn't say how old your Daughter is, so just letting you know that some people use the Song title as a slang sexual reference.

    Dusty's brother Tom worked quite a bit with The Seekers.

    Some of their songs that he was involved with.

    PJ Harvey - Rid of Me

    Her early stuff went hard before she was subsumed by the industry. My favorite was actually 4 Track Demos, but it is literally her demos and is super rough.

    Also, not really my personal favorite, but

    Amy Winehouse - Back to Black

    belongs in there somewhere and might be a better bridge to someone with more modern sensabilities

    Roberta Flack had multiple hits, but not so much together on one album. Maybe focus on her hits rather than her albums.

    Roberta Flack
    • First Take
    • Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway
    • Killing Me Softly
