Lucy Ann Polk

[Andy Volk]

I just learned a little about Lucy Ann last week. She didn't have much of a public career but had a nice sound and phrasing. Here's a rare early soundie.

I always liked this song ... very diatonic chord changes morph to chromatic chord changes and she sings it well with kind of a girl next door innocence to her delivery. A 90s swing revival band called Big Kahuna & The Copa Cat Pack did a killer version.
