Item Description:
Chance Records CH-1143 (made in USA) - Big Bertha Hendeson with Al Smith Orch. - Rock, Daddy, Rock b/w Tears In My Eyes ten inch 78 r.p.m. record released in 1952.
For the session with singer Big Bertha Henderson, whose "house-rockin'" apperances were advertised at Club Evergreen and Martin's Corner in the fall of 1952, Smith brought along two of the best tenor saxophonists in town, James "Red" Holloway (1927- ) and Oett "Sax" Mallard (1915 - 1986). His rhythm section was filled out by Billy Wallace on piano, William "Lefty" Bates (1920 - ) on guitar, and Leon Hooper on drums. For the Bobby Prince session, he brought Red and Lefty back, along with Eddie Johnson (1920 - ) on tenor, the indispensable McKinley "Mac" Easton (1914 -1 986) on baritone sax, and Clarence "Sleepy" Anderson on piano. About Bertha herself, we know little. She recorded for Savoy the next year, and some correspondence that was preserved in the Savoy files gives a home address in New Orleans for her.
The condition of the record is Excellent. Labels are clean.
Please complete the transaction within one week of auction closing.
