Against the background of today's chaos, Debby Dobbins delivers a haunting vocal that evokes the romance, mystery and beauty of legendary Baghdad. The song implies longing for what once was, and implies hope for what could be.
Debby Dobbins first caught the attention of Spirit Records when she was lighting up the Charlotte jazz circuit, packing the clubs, and sharing the stage with such notables as the late and legendary Dizzy Gillespie. She one day turned up singing background vocals on a Spirit demo project, and soon became the label's featured female vocalist. She scored a string of regional pop/R&B hits for the label, ultimately going to Hollywood and a Star Search national TV performance of her hit single "Can't Help This Feelin'". Her first Spirit single "How You Gonna' Feel" remains a southeastern US and UK northern soul classic.
