Bessie Smith was the first major blues and jazz singer on record and one of the most popular of all musical history. She earned the title of "The Empress of the Blues". Her first records were made in 1923, but instead of bad quality of those records, her wonderful voice sounds good and still communicates easily to today's listeners (which is not true of any other singer from that early period). Most popular Bessie Smith truetones listed: Whoa Tillie Take Your Time, A Good Man Is Hard To Find, I'm Down In The Dumps, Gimme A Pigfoot, Pinchbacks Take Em Away, Take It Right Back. Interesting fact - last downloaded ringtone: Me And My Gin to Hop-on hop1913 cell phone carried by NET10.
