Hello Folks, Reading Jazz a nice thick book edited by Robert Gottlieb has a long autobiographical piece by Mary Lou. It has a variety of articles by all the jazz greats. Worth finding. Jay
Hi Folks, This is a Gershwin piece from Porgy and Bess. Mary Lou Williams is one of the Giants of jazz as a player, composer, arranger and innovator. She and Art Tatum did a lot of the theory for the Be-Boppers. Jay
This has to be the most classiest & beautifully piece of Gershwin's PORKY&BESS "It Ain't Necessarily So" I have ever heard. Not many people know that Gershwin's PORKY&BESS has been considered a OPERA...every since 1975. So, hearing the classical piano version by Ldy. Mary L.Williams, just goes "hand`N`hand"!
