Production
Produced by Scott Billington, the album was recorded at Ultransonic Studios, in New Orleans.[6][7][8] "I Believe I Can Fly" is a cover of the R. Kelly song.[9] Brown learned to perform "Cabbage Head" during her childhood.[10] Dan Penn wrote "Be Good to Me Tonight" and "Can't Stand a Broke Man".[11] "True" is a cover of the Paul Gayten song.[12] Duke Robillard played guitar on A Good Day for the Blues.[13] Wardell Quezergue worked on some of the song arrangements.[14] A couple of the songs contain spoken word passages by Brown.[15]
Critical reception
Шаблон:Music ratings The Sunday Age wrote that "Good Day represents the best, horn-driven, vintage R&B put out today."[16] The Atlanta Constitution noted that, "with Brown's experience, she's able to seamlessly explore the tricky territory between blues and jazz with ease."[9] The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette deemed the album "a tribute to her vocal skills—if anything, better with age, a voice full of whiskey and wry."[17] The Chicago Tribune determined that it leans "more on sassy, rambling story-songs like 'H.B.'s Funky Fable' than her classic belting style."[18]
