Sippie Wallace - I'm Mighty Tight Woman download song

one of Dodds' best solos...

the horns and other instruments are EXACTLY those on Bessie Smith's records. The voice is very similar to Bessie's.

She's saying she's an amazing woman. "Tight" is a good expression still used by black people of a certain age.

I have just found it as i was writing this i glanced to the left of the screen and there was her face!!!! Sweet Emma!!!!!!!

Sippie Wallace began to record in 1923 on Okeh records. Unlike most blues women, she wrote most of her own songs. She had a sexy, sassy style that set her apart. She is a one of a kind!!! A great blue's singer who paved the way for many women including Bonnie Raitt whom she recorded with in the 60's. R.I.P. Sippe.

this Woman was Bonnie Raitts mentor,and you can hear it.Oooohh yeah.

Love me some Sippie! Thank you Bonnie Raitt, because I might've never found Sippie without ya, babe!

I've come to you sweet man Falling on my knees I've come to you, pretty papa Falling on my knees To ask, if you ain't got nobody Kind darlin', take me please 'Cause I'm a mighty tight woman I'm a real tight woman, I'm a jack of all trades I can be yo' sweet woman an' also be yo' slave I can do things so good 'Til you will swear that I have a halo over me I hear ev'rybody saying That I'm tight in ev'rything that I do I've got all the men cryin' I'm a broad that never feels blue All I want is a good man And I will make him happy too If you a married man You ain't got no business here 'Cause when you out with me I might make yo' wife shed tears 'Cause I'm a mighty tight woman And there is nothin' that I fear

Sippie Wallace The TEXAS MOCKINGBIRD, from Houston, Texas!!!

I'm amazed how tight she is with her named "Sippy".

Now I see where Bonnie Rait gets her style from.

Now that is one beautiful rare treasure thanks for sharing it

Have some respect. this is our past.

One of the pioneers of the blues!!!

A great mixture of a classic blues singer-pianist and New Orleans in Chicago jazz musicians. Natty Dominique, cornet, Honore Dutrey, trombone, Johnny Dodds, clarinet, Sippie on piano and vocal and Bill Johnson on string bass. Johnson played in the Original Creole Band with Freddie Keppard. Dutrey and Dodds played in King Oliver and Louis Armstrong's bands. Great band, great singer-songwriter pianist. Great blues and jazz.
