Alberta Hunter's Downhearted Blues

While I fear I'll die of old age before my order from raisedonrecords (via Amazon) comes, I've received both my recent acquisitions form caiman.com via amazon (they rock - Caiman are always really quick to deliver and no hassle to deal with). The first was Alberta Hunter's Downhearted Blues, a live recording by one of my favourite artists. You can read about her over on allmusic, but I think the phrase 'dirty lesbian nanna' pretty much sums it up. This album is fun - you can hear that nanna working the crowd. Not so much for DJing, but it's certainly worth listening to, and heaps of fun.
