Who is the Queen of blues? asked someone at Answers.com, "The World's leading Q&A site".

Bessie Smith (1894-1937 ), Dinah Washington (1924-1963), Memphis Minnie (1897-1973), Mary Ann Fisher (1923-2004) and Koko Taylor (1928-2009) were all know as Queen of the Blues at various times. Inasmuch as there can only be one Queen - it's tough to choose, and in any case very much a matter of taste." was the answer.

Hey, they forgot to mention Laurel Mae Martin. Her record was once described by a puzzled e-bay seller as "Detroit Hillbilly Soul Motown Northern Funk". Six words, only one accurate : Detroit.

These two sides are something you've never heard before. Truly amazing!
