This review is from: Mother of the Blues: 1923-1928 (Audio CD)

Ma Rainey didn't have a voice that was strong or beautiful as her protegee Bessie Smith, but she had a deep feeling for the sad songs she performed and I found this ancient recordings very moving!It was still a early age for recordings so technically speaking this recordings are very bad but they have they own charm in spite of that.I love this album and found myself humming the tunes very often.
