CAMILLE HOWARD first came to prominence as an ensemble member of Roy Milton’s Solid Senders, in the 1940s. One of the very finest blues piano players of the era, she was known for her fast, complex boogie-woogie style, with its dexterous fingerwork and powerful drive. SPECIALTY label released 2 fine compilations of her work for the label around 20 years ago, but this 2 cd set also includes some of her later recordings for VEE JAY- FEDERAL & GOTHAM..............
