I heard "Temptation" by Mary Lou Williams on the radio recently. If anyone out there can upload it - please do - it's a fabulous piece of music. What talent!

I must have been in a coma for more than 70 years, which is why I have just awoken to this genius.

Hey downyc
My friend and mentor knew and mentored with her, please pass my email onto your friend, my friend Jim is an old timer and doesn't even have a computer but he is a main stay in the underground jazz scene in Toronto. I am just producing a CD with him. Look up on youtube amateurfun Jim heineman trio, he is fanatstic and you can hear Mary Lou's influence in his compositions. Love her!

I'm forty two. Love jazz. Lived in Pittsburgh my whole life and just found out about Mary Lou Williams. She is amazing. Why is she being kept a secret?
I know someone currently making a documentary about Mary Lou Williams. She is getting known musicians and celebs to be in it. Might be interested in others who knew her, etc. I saw the beginnings of the documentary and it is beautiful.. can't wait for it to be completed.

I loved jazz since I was 10, why nobody tell me about this beautiful woman. I am pissed.

@coloredopinions She doesn't get the recognition she deserves outside of serious jazz circles, but then few great jazz artists do.

@deepkeel65 yeah, and if she came out today she'd barely get any at all. Then record labels ask why is music suffering. (smh)
