I was supposed to close out the month of June with additional Black Music Month posts, but as stated in my Summer Hiatus post, summer classes were killing me--those last weeks (of the first session) were doing it especially. In this post, I'll just list the remaining artists who were to be honored and will include links to their discographies or available music:
June Richmond
"47th Street Jive" and "Ride On, Ride On" (with Roy Milton and His Band)
"Hey Lawdy Mama" (1947)
"La danse du baiser" (1956)
