Lizzie Miles, Ida Cox, Marnie Smith, and Una Mae Carlisle are some of the artists included here, and performances like Bessie Smith's "Empty Bed Blues, Pt. 1-2," Ma Rainey's "Booze & Blues," Billie Holliday's "Long Gone Blues," and Ada Brown's "Evil Mama Blues" showcase the sultry, world-weary, and often humorous stylings of these pioneering blueswomen. ~ Heather Phares
