> That the Stella Brooks records were made at all is a wonder.  I became acquainted with Stella at the end of her long (too long, from her point of view) life.  She probably was a more gifted singer than even these very interesting records attest.  Stella, alas, disdained the idea of making records, doing radio, and just about every other convention in music and normal life.  She was, in a way, the "Zelig" of jazz (and actually used to cut Woody Allen's hair in his Hungry I days, although she disdained Woody Allen).  The Disc side were long available appended to some Greta Keller material (disdain!) on a Folkways LP, and are still (I believe) available through the Smithsonian on CD.
