A woman in a man's world
Life, John Clewley, Published on 19/07/2022

After the record was released in 1953, it reached the top spot on Billboard's Rhythm & Blues Records Chart and sold 2 million copies.

He was completely unaware of the interest in folk blues at the time (Skip James and Bukka White were already playing crossover folk clubs).
