  • Hi Les. I usually try to give the background that I can find on artists, but this one would have been pretty long regarding Tiny Davis. Google International Sweethearts Of Rhythm and the website will give you a lot of fascinating info on Tiny and her career.

    Thank you as always,

    Mike

  • The Margie Day song is on the "Jumpin' The Blues" CD. I also have it on the double disc set "Men Are Like Streetcars:Women Blues Singers".

  • Super, thanks! Hey, is this the disc that also has Margie Day's "Take Out Your False Teeth Daddy"? I love that one.

  • wow ! a band of women musicians rocking out ! i bet there was trouble when they did gigs ! i wonder how long this band was together ? they are excellent ! thank you very much for this fine music !
