?It was 1958 when a passably successful R&B singer
entered the recording studio with an all-star
band to tape a dozen songs from the global
repertoire of a legendary blues vocalist. The
old-fashioned style in LaVern Baker?s tribute to
Bessie Smith might seem somewhat strange in the
midst of popular R&B numbers and the growing
productivity of the Motown hit machines, but it
certainly found favour with the public. And for a
very good reason too! Right from the very first
number, 'Gimme A Pigfoot', the snappy bass line
conjures up the ballroom atmosphere of the
Twenties. A bluesy dialogue with the trumpet
('Baby Doll', 'I Ain?t Gonna Play No Second
Fiddle'), alternating with robustly orchestrated
swing rhythms ('On Revival Day'), and time and
again cool, faltering blues ('Black Water Blues')
guarantee great listening and entertainment. The
great names in the band read like a Who Is Who of
outstanding musicians ? Nat Pierce, Buck Clayton,
Paul Quinichette, Urbie Green and Jimmy Cleveland,
all who crown the fantastic sound of their
performance with relaxed and easy-going solos and
finely balanced background playing that would
hardly be more authentic on a live stage. And by
the way, fans of traditional big-band swing will
love this album too.

This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure
analogue components only, from the master tapes
through to the cutting head. All royalties and
mechanical rights have been paid.
