LaVern Baker Sings Bessie Smith (Vinyl) 12" Album (UK IMPORT)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: Sings Bessie SmithCondition: NewDescription: LaVern Baker was one of the sexiest divas gracing the mid-'50s rock and roll circuit, boasting a brashly seductive vocal delivery tailor-made for belting the catchy novelties ''Tweedlee Dee,'' ''Tra La La,'' and ''Bop-Ting-a-Ling'' for Atlantic Records during rock's first wave of prominence. Of all the Bessie Smith tributes out there this has to be the most complete. Lavern Baker always had a powerful voice as she always show on her pop oriented material. She lets it all go on this album. Baker proves what a great blues/jazz belter she was. And what a back-up band! Featuring some of the best jazz musicians of their time: Buck Clayton on trumpet, Paul Quinichette on sax, Nat Pierce on piano, Vic Dickenson and Jimmy Cleveland on trombone, among others. Ernie Wilkins supplied some of the arrangements. Engineered by the legendary Tom Dowd and produced Nesuhi Ertegun, this is an album that should be in everyone's collection.Format: VinylGenre: R&B/SoulArtist: LaVern BakerNo Of Discs: 1Record Label: Del Ray RecordsEAN: 8436563181504Edition: 12" AlbumRelease Date: 11/17/2017Style: Female VocalMPN: DR10006Country/Region of Manufacture: CanadaRelease Year: 2017Tracks: 1: Gimme a Pigfoot2: Baby Doll3: On Revival Day4: Money Blues5: I Ain't Gonna Play No Second Fiddle6: Back Water Blues7: Empty Bed Blues8: There'll Be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight9: Nobody Knows When You're Down and Out10: After You've Gone11: Young Woman's Blues12: Preaching the Blues Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
