Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah - Patti Austin




It is with great gusto that legendary R&B and jazz singer PATTI AUSTIN sings Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah. Austin has been singing since she was four in 1954, and when this song was recorded in 1996 it is clear that she has had a lifetime of experience.

This version of Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah strips away all the cheese and jaunty tunes and delivers a powerful piece of funk/pop in it's place. It is one of the most serious covers of this song I have ever heard.
