Dorothy Ashby was a pioneering jazz harpist whose innovative approach helped establish the harp as a legitimate solo instrument in jazz. Recorded in Chicago in 1969 and originally released on Cadet Records, Dorothy's Harp showcases her remarkable ability to reinterpret popular songs of the era, with covers of works by Jimmy Webb, Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and Lennon and McCartney, all filtered through her distinctive jazz sensibility.

This 2017 reissue from Music On Vinyl brings Dorothy's Harp back to life on 180-gram audiophile vinyl, making it an excellent opportunity to experience Ashby's lush, sophisticated arrangements in the format they deserve. Pressed in the Netherlands and distributed by Universal Music, this release faithfully preserves a late-1960s gem that beautifully bridges the worlds of jazz and pop.
