Buy Verve's Master Edition of Dinah Washington's "Sings Bessie Smith" and Columbia Legacy's one-disk "Bessie Smith - The Collection" and listen to them back to back. Even if the gals couldn't sing the blues, and man can they, you'd like these for the sidemen alone, Louis Armstrong, Clark Terry and Blue Mitchell on trumpets at various junctures, for example.
