To Anyone wanting to find more of Lucy Ann's music , I found a very cool site where the guy gave a very comprehensive update of newer release of her with Les Browne and others . Easiest way is Google Lucy Ann Polk , then you will see a linc to Kool Kat Korner ...go there I am still looking for her if anyone can help ! Randy Polk
Glpmusic, you are are right, of course, about Robbin's Nest. Thank you for clearing up my confusion. I'm 78 years old, still keeping the jazz faith, but I forget some things here and there but I'll never forget that Bird still lives! To hear a fine version of Robbins Nest search Youtube Robbins Nest Illinois Jacquet. Enjoy.
Harry I am going out of my mind because I have been looking for Lucy Ann for awhile and now you say you have a film of My dad , Vernon Polk , his brother Gordon , and Elva , and Lucy Ann. Lucy Ann still lives , as far as I know and I have everyone in the industry looking for her . I last saw her in 83 . please stay in touch . I put my email on your site cuz not allowed here . Randy Polk
I just discovered a 16 mm film of "The Four Polks" in the attic - a 1942 movie of a 14 year old Lucy Ann Polk with her brothers and sister, playing and singing "Miss You". I love this "soundie" but have to admit that I had never heard of Lucy Ann Polk, who also plays pretty good vibraphone in the film! Through internet I came to this video - thanks for putting it on YouTube; what a great singer she became! Is anybody still in touch with her?
@PearlIzMii Pearl pleeeeaaaase contact me !!! Randy Polk . Seems email addresses cannot be posted here , so here is a friends phone number , as my phone is temporarily out ! If you can leave your # there , I will call you back ! Thanks , Randy Polk 808-640- 9475

Hello Randy, thanks for reacting! You say you don't know where Lucy Ann is - but see the posting above from PearlzMii; apparently she sees her every now and then - perhaps you can get in touch? I am having trouble digitalizing the Four Polks 16 mm soundie - but I will try to get it done after May.
Very nice arrangement, lovely vocal. The saxophone solo fits quite well with this version. Thanks, for posting.

Someone wrote that this song has the melody of "Robbins Nest". Sorry, but that's
not true. They have a similar melodic rhythm in a few places but they are two different melodies. Check "Robbins Nest" and you'll see.

Her beautifull voice reminds me of Beverlly Kenney, who had that sweetness too
