MY LITTLE BIMBO DOWN ON THE BAMBOO ISLE sung by Aileen Stanley, recorded in 1920. Aileen Stanley was a blues singer who first recorded in 1920 for Victor records. She was very popular in the 1920s and one of only a handful of white singers who recorded for Black Swan Records, as Mamie Jones. A pioneer in early blues. Enjoy!
According the the sheet music I have this was "her" song from some stage show, circa 1920.

Very spirited version! I have only ever listened to Frank Crumit singing it. I've never heard Aileen sound quite like this before! Thanks for sharing!
