Pearl Bailey Sings Porgy & Bess & Other Gershwin Melodies ... CD Collectors Choice, 1959. Used ... Out Of Stock
A really wonderful take on Porgy & Bess and other Gershwin standards by Pearl Bailey – there's just something about her naturally rich, bluesy, husky tone on these tunes that's simply wonderful!
