Volume 245: Sammy Jumps With Joya
Joy from Sammy and Joya
Usually I don’t title the episode exactly the same as the album I’m featuring, but this one was just too good not to use. Yes, we will hear the artist I think is the greatest showman who ever lived, but this record is really about Joya.
She is not widely known today, despite her significant contributions, because of a combination of historical and social factors that often affected women and African American artists in jazz.
But the gang at the Design Label teamed her up in 1957 with a fast rising star in Davis Jr to introduce her solo recordings to the world.
So, get ready to hear a voice that brought joy when I saw him on stage and a voice that brought joy when I heard this record in Volume 245: Sammy Jumps With Joya.
For more information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.
