Various ‎– Women In Jazz: Pianists, Vol 2 (Stash Records, 1978) Full Album [Piano/Jazz/Vocal]

Absolutely crucial survey featuring ladies on keys from the 20s through the early 60s... A Stash Records (cult NY Jazz Label known for those druggie compilations - also rad) second in a series focusing on Women in Jazz. Nice!

"Playing the piano was the easiest way for a woman to get into the music business as a professional. From the very beginning of jazz, a woman pianist was usually welcomed in most of the small combos and even in some of the larger bands as they developed in the middle twenties. Some had had rudimentary music instruction in childhood, others evolved their own system of learning and then built a personal style from it."
