Mary Lou Williams Solo Recital
Mary Lou Williams

Released July 16, 1978

Mary Lou Williams's final recording (performed three years before her death) gives one a strong retrospective of her career. This solo concert at the 1978 Montreux Jazz Festival has a medley encompassing spirituals, ragtime, blues and swing. Other highlights include Williams's reworkings of "Tea for Two," "Honeysuckle Rose" and her two compositions "Little Joe from Chicago" and "What's Your Story Morning Glory." Recommended. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
