Description
AMERICAN JAZZ VOCALIST OF THE 1930'S, 40'S AND 50'S: STELLA BROOKS, WITH DAVID STONE MARTIN LINE DRAWING COVER.
3 ALBUM SET WITH RECORDS STILL IN PLACE WITH THE ORIGINAL CARDBOARD PROTECTOR INSERT. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY NEVER PLAYED. AS CLOSE TO BRAND NEW AS 75 YEAR OLD RECORDS CAN LOOK. NO INDICATION ON LABELS OF EVER SEEING A TURNTABLE.
STELLA BROOKS, CABARET SINGER - BIOGRAPHICAL INFO REVEALS THE FOLLOWING: SHE BEGAN SINGING IN SAN FRANCISCO IN THE EARLY 30'S; MOVED TO NYC IN 1937 WHERE SHE SANG IN THE ENSEMBLES OF ART HODES, SIDNEY BECHET, JOE SULLIVAN, GEORGE BRUNIS AND FRANKIE NEWTON. DURING THE LATE 40'S SHE BEFRIENDED TENNESSEE WILLIAMS AND BILLIE HOLIDAY; SHE WAS SOMETIMES KNOWN AS "THE WHITE BILLY HOLIDAY". WILLIAMS WROTE ABOUT BROOKS IN HIS MEMOIRS.
3 RECORDS: DISC NEW YORK LABEL WITH STATUE OF LIBERTY.
5030 A - WEST END 5030 B - AS LONG AS I LIVE
5031 A - ST. LOUIS BLUES 5031 B - JAZZ ME BLUES
5032 A - A LITTLE PIECE OF LEATHER 5032 B - I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME
SONGS ON RECORD #'S 5030 & 5031 ARE SHOWN ON BOTH STELLA BROOKS DISCOGRAPHY AND DISC NEW YORK DISCOGRAPHY AS BEING RELEASED IN 1946. I CANNOT FIND ANY MENTION OF THE THIRD RECORD, 5032, BEING ON EITHER DISCOGRAPHY ALTHOUGH REFERENCE TO THESE SONGS CAN BE FOUND ELSEWHERE. THIS ALBUM SET IS SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. ALBUM CASE HAS SOME SOILING ON FRONT AND BACK COVER. STORAGE SCRAPING AND CHIPPING CAN BE SEEN ALONG BOTTOM FRONT COVER. SLIGHT PARTIAL SEPARATION ALONG UPPER FRONT SPINE AS SHOWN, BUT ALBUM IS TIGHT.
ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, OR PICS NEEDED JUST ASK.
