RECORD DATE : July 9, 1926

Margaret Johnson is another one of those blues singers who seems to have slipped into the mists of time with very little known of her. She started recording for Okeh in 1923, and after five sessions for the label over three years, moved over to Victor for sessions in 1926 & '27, before landing over at Okeh for one more date late in '27.

This record finds her in her early days at Okeh, in a session that started late in the evening on January 7th, 1925, and continued well past midnight. The songs recorded were “Who’ll Chop Your Suey” and “Done Made A Fool Out Of Me.” The band here is not listed in the Victor files except as a trio, playing a concertina, piano, and bass.
