Although the slight, demure Ottilie looked like a shy Irish coleen, she sang like a white Bessie Smith, as Louis Armstrong once famously observed. She recorded prolifically, both as a solo artiste and as an ensemble band member, and this compilation is drawn from both sources. Includes a handful of solo singles, plus seven sides from her critically-acclaimed 1961 solo LP, \"Blues Book Vol. 1\", alongside tracks from The Chris Barber Band's three biggest-selling albums, \"In Concert, Vols 1, 2 \u0026amp; 3\". Features duets with Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Sonny Terry \u0026amp; Brownie McGhee and Louis Jordan. Ottilie was an exceptional live performer, and 10 of these sides are either from official Live albums or gigs which Barber recorded professionally, but were unreleased at the time. A half-dozen or so of these twenty-seven sides are virtually impossible to find elsewhere on CD.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 I Hate a?Man Like You (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Nobody Knows You When You're Down?and Out \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Beale St. Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Kay Cee Rider \u003cbr\u003e1.5 I Love My Baby \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Mean Mistreater (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Lowland Blues (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.8 When the Saints Go Marching in (Live) (With Sister Rosetta Tharpe) \u003cbr\u003e1.9 When Things Go Wrong (Live) (With Sonny Terry ; Brownie McGhee) \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Moonshine Man (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Georgia Grind (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Strange Things Happening Every Day (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Trombone Cholly \u003cbr\u003e1.14 As Long?As I'm Moving \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Bad Spell Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Kid Man Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Four Point Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.18 It's All Over \u003cbr\u003e1.19 Mama He Treats Your Daughter Mean \u003cbr\u003e1.20 Tell Me Why \u003cbr\u003e1.21 Me?and My Chauffeur Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.22 Lordy Lordy It Hurts So?Bad \u003cbr\u003e1.23 Only the Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.24 Can't?Afford to Do It (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.25 Weeping Willow Blues (Live) \u003cbr\u003e1.26 I?Hate Myself (For Being So Mean to You) \u003cbr\u003e1.27 T'aint Nobody's Business If I Do (With Louis Jordan)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
