Following the popularity of my earlier postings of Bessie, I found this one among my archives and (because I can't find it elsewhere on YouTube) thought it should be posted.
I'm sorry about the quality, but it WAS recorded on May 5th. 1925!!
Bessie is accompanied by:- Joe Smith; tpt. Charlie Green; tmb. Buster Bailey; clt. Coleman Hawkins; ten. sax. Fletcher Henderson; pno. Bob Escudero; tuba. Charlie Dixon; bjo. and Kaiser Marshall; dms.
