Title Note

Document Records has released two compilations--arranged chronologically and sold separately--of blues singer Sippie Wallace's early recordings. Though Wallace's contributions to the blues canon are sometimes overlooked, these songs place her alongside such luminaries as Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey. (Wallace "retired" from performing and recording for over 30 years, until she emerged to join the blues and roots revival of the late 1960s.) VOL. 2 focuses on the recordings Wallace made between 1925 and 1927, a period that finds Wallace in top form.

Fans of "hot" jazz will be interested to learn that a young Louis Armstrong accompanies Wallace on 10 numbers here. Though Armstrong is mostly in the background, his few instrumental spots and a spoken-word interlude on "Special Delivery Blues" raise the profile of these already top-notch sessions. But even Armstrong, clarinetist Johnny Dodds, and pianist Hersal Thomas (Wallace's younger brother, who would die an untimely death shortly after these recordings), cannot dim Wallace's vocal chops and emotional intensity, especially on the ballad "I'm a Mighty Tight Woman" (in which she distinguishes herself from her fast-living contemporaries). At 23 tracks, this is a generous, high-caliber collection of classic blues.
