Review by Daniel Valente

Album Review: Melinda Where There’s A Way by Danny Owens Released in 1959 on MGM Records, Melinda Where There’s A Way by Danny Owens is a hidden gem that blends Funk/Soul and Pop with a vocal style that feels both intimate and grand. This US-made album captures the charm of its time while offering moments that still resonate today. If you’re into music that tells a story without trying too hard, this one might just hit the spot. Let’s talk tracks. The title track, “Melinda,” is an instant standout. It’s smooth, soulful, and has this warm vibe that wraps around you like your favorite blanket. Owens’ vocals are heartfelt but not overdone—there’s a raw sincerity here that makes it memorable. You can almost picture him leaning into the mic, letting the lyrics flow naturally. For me, it’s the kind of song that sticks because it doesn’t demand attention; it earns it. Then there’s “Where There’s A Way.” This track brings a bit more energy to the table. It’s got a playful rhythm that makes you want to tap your foot or maybe even hum along after a listen or two. What I love about this one is how effortlessly it balances fun and finesse. It’s not trying to reinvent the wheel—it’s just doing what it does really well. And honestly, sometimes that’s all you need. While the album may not have made waves back in the day, it’s worth revisiting for fans of vocal-driven music from the late ‘50s. Sure, it’s not perfect—some parts feel a little dated, and the production could’ve used a touch more polish—but that’s part of its charm. It’s real, unfiltered, and full of heart. Reflecting on Melinda Where There’s A Way, I find myself wondering why albums like this don’t get more love. Maybe it’s because we’re always chasing the next big thing instead of appreciating the quiet brilliance of what’s already out there. Either way, if you stumble across this record, give it a spin. Who knows? You might just fall for Danny Owens’ understated magic—and trust me, that’s not something you hear every day.
