Ma Rainey

Ma Rainey's Black Bottom which makes obvious allusions not having much to do with the flapper-era dance-is perhaps the centerpiece of this sturdy collection of her Paramount hits; also includes Jealous Hearted Blues; See See Rider Blues; Jelly Bean Blues; Countin' the Blues; Slave to the Blues; Chain Gang Blues; Wringin' and Twistin' Blues; Mountain Jack Blues; Trust No Man; Morning Hour Blues; Hear Me Talking to You; Blame it on the Blues; Daddy Goodbye Blues; Sweet Rough Man; Leavin' This Morning, and more.
