Next up, an artist I had the privilege to see twice. Shed been around since the 30s. A great blues singer, fantastic performer, at any age. And a musical icon and legend. Im talking the great Alberta Hunter, here. Yep. Incredible. One of the times I did see her, she performed with her old comrade-in-arms, the great ragtime pianist, Eubie Blake. Wow...in the Avery Fisher Hall in NYC. Never will forget that. Here she is with the great Bessie Smith song and original hit, Nobody Knows You When Youre Down and Out. In her early late 70s when she did this live performance, she had the audience eating out of her hands. j
