[Dixielandjazz] Women's History Month

[Katie Cavera]

Good Call Bert! - See, I knew I was missing a few.  I like her stuff with the Andy Kirk band a lot.  And now I'm going to have to find and listen to the arrangement of Blue Skies you mention. Maybe I've heard it before and I didn't realize it was her arrangement. Thanks so much - she's a great addition!

(snip)  Maybe you could think about Mary Lou Williams,

She wrote a lot of things for Andy Kirk and his Twelve Clouds of Joy. (1929 - 1930s)

Several titles also have the name Williams as composer, besides she is the most important arranger and soloist of that band.
