Who was The Original Bessie Brown?
Bessie Brown also known as "The Original" Bessie Brown, was an American classic female blues, jazz, and cabaret singer. She sometimes recorded under the pseudonyms of Sadie Green, Caroline Lee, and possibly Helen Richards. Brown was active as a recording artist from 1925 to 1929. Her best known tracks were "Ain't Much Good in the Best of Men Nowdays" and "Song from a Cotton Field".
She should not be confused with her namesake, Bessie Brown, who recorded vaudeville and blues styled duets with George W. Williams, over a similar timespan.
