Smith & Co

Dorothy Moore is one of those exceptions; a loyal artist who spent almost her entire career signed to Malaco Records in Jackson, Mississippi. In fact it was her international hit "Misty Blue" which provided the impetus for Malaco to move from a production company to a bona fide record company. Ironically the fact that they couldn’t place the recording of Misty Blue with an established label led them to press and distribute the record themselves. Of course it went onto to become an international hit reaching no. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topping the U.K. charts. Dorothy then went on to have another 10 R&B hits  with “Funny How Time Slips Away” (the Willie Nelson song,) “”I believe you” and “With Pen in Hand” all crossing over to give her pop hits. These hits are all on this double album, once again compiled by Ian Dewhirst the founder and compiler of the Master Cuts series, who has brought together a wonderful collection of her most beautiful soul ballads from the Malaco archives. Her pure emotion is just a joy to listen to and “Misty Blue” has to one if the songs of the century.
