Description
Known as ‘the first lady of the jazz keyboard’, Mary Lou Williams achieved extraordinary recognition and success as pianist, composer and arranger in an era where women often found it hard to break through. This collection covers a large period of her career, stopping before she chose to devote herself to religion around the 1950s. The 14-track LP features much-loved numbers such as Night Life, Overhand (New Froggy Bottom), Walkin’ and Swingin’, Roll ‘Em and In The Land of Oo-Bla-Dee
