12/19/2018  In the business  for 78 years, this Arkansas born singer songwriter, pianist and organist displays a powerful voice in this performance, probably in her 70s.  Beulah Belle Thomas, her birth name, did a lot of her own songwriting, as shown in her last album “Sippie” released in 1982, which was nominated for a Grammy and won the W. C. Handy Award for Best Blues Album of the Year.  She worked with many popular artists including Louis Armstrong, with whom she recorded many successful songs.  Check out her documentary film, “Sippie Wallace: Blues Singer and Song Writer.”
