Recording information: New York, NY (01/14/1925-02/14/1940). Taking in some of the key jazz chanteuses from the early jazz and swing periods, Ladies Sing Jazz features a clutch of numbers each by Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald. Spotlighting the singers in their early prime -- Smith with Louis Armstrong, Holiday with Teddy Wilson and Lester Young, and Fitzgerald with Chick Webb -- the 21-track set offers a viable alternative to all the one-song-an-artist surveys available. Adding to the fun, EPM has also included fine work by such often overshadowed ladies as Ivie Anderson (Duke Ellington), Adelaide Hall, and Ethel Waters. A treat. ~ Stephen Cook
