Detour Ahead is a bewitching collection of the new, old and blue showcasing Jacqui's special relationship with standards & blues

Contemplating her impressive vocal range (the exremes of which are exhibited on 'Detour Ahead' and 'Strange Woman') Jacqui has crafted a personal sense of time and space, never sounding hurried or mundane. Feeling is something Miss Dankworth has in abundance she lives the lyics and imbues them with her own nuances, bending notes and caressing words to stunning effect (try 'But Beautiful', for the definitive Dankworth!)
