[Dixielandjazz] Martha Tilton

[Robert Smith]

R.I.P. Martha Tilton

I must confess that the name Martha Tilton didn't mean anything to me, and 
as my collection of Benny Goodman records is rather meagre, I was surprised 
to find that I actually have "Ooooh, Boom" from March 9th, 1938 where both 
Benny and Martha sing. She had a light singing style, almost like a review 
artist. Benny reminds me of Jack Teagarden, and on this particular record he 
introduces the solists - Jess Stacy, Gordon "Chris" Griffin, Vernon Brown, 
Babe Russin, and Harry James.

Cheers
