[78-L] Definitive Jazz Singers.

[Bud Black]

Leave us not forget Peggy Lee.  Remember "Don't Smoke In Bed?"  IMNSHO she
was right up there with best of the female jazzers.  Sure, she recorded a
lot of pap along the way, but one must live!

Hi Julian!
 
She's the one in Jamming The Blues, isn't she.
I like her very much.
Strange, but I've never come across any records of her.
 
If we want to talk about DEFINITIVE Jazz singers, one needs to go
back to the generation BEFORE Ella and Billie. Then you get to
Adelaide Hall, a genuinely 'definitive' Jazz singer since, born in
1901, she helped write the book!
 
Earl.
