Ottilie Patterson was a formidable blues and RandB vocalist, and her partnership with Chris Barber's celebrated British jazz band produced vital interpretations of these traditions. This Lake Records compilation documents sessions from 1955-1958, capturing Patterson's powerful, emotionally direct singing against the band's driving rhythm and blues accompaniment. Her interpretations showcase genuine feeling and stylistic command. This is authentic RandB and traditional jazz from a period when British musicians engaged seriously with American forms. A valuable historical document featuring one of Britain's most underrated postwar singers.
