I had heard of ma rainey, never heard her. Great! thank you.
Some of your rants are crap but your music is pretty cool.
I’ll be back to this site.
Ma Rainey
a fascinating character there was a great play about her as well which I saw in New York some 25 years ago
Possibly a greater singer than Bessie Smith
Oh and the rants, just a bit of fun and venting, sometimes apposite, sometimes crap
