Digitally remastered edition of this 1969 album from the Queen of R&B. On the aptly titled Black Is Brown And Brown Is Beautiful, she puts her strong voice to soulful covers of 'Yesterday', 'Please Send Me Someone to Love' (Mayfield) and own songs such as 'Miss Brown's Blues'. This material is closer to Soul than to Jazz, and it is full of joy and, of course, rhythm. Discover a truly glorious singer and a R&B legend.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
