There's a rather extraordinary pdf file that is devoted to the wonderful singer Lucy Ann Polk. Here's the link. A fine piece of jazz vocal scholarship. And while we're on the subject of Lucy Ann, this is a link (mp3 links for a limited time only) to one of my favorite recordings by this woefully under-recorded singer.
Lucy is happily retired but sang at a Labor Day party I attended in 2005.
Thanks so much for this link! Lucy Ann Polk is one of the great voices of 20th century music. I've been trying to spread her name around to anyone who'll listen.
