Not many people will remember the name Joan Shaw, a great singer who never really got her due in the early days of her career. Born in 1930 in Newport News, Virginia, home town of Ella Fitzgerald and Pearl Bailey, she began singing in amateur programs when she was 13. In December 1947 she made her recording debut as a featured jazz vocalist, singing Rain in My Eyes with the Buddy Tate Orchestra. From 1949 on she toured and recorded with different groups during the R & B era and the rise of rock n roll. In 1956 she tried the pop route, recording with strings and commercial arrangements, but it didn t work.
A better future loomed when eminent jazz critic Leonard Feather hailed her as one of the most promising singers in the United States, and in 1961, surrounded by fine jazzmen, she recorded her first album Sings for Swingers, for Epic Records. She played some of the best clubs on the contemporary circuit, recording Joan Shaw in Person, a live album with the Herman Foster trio. Despite good reviews, however, it proved to be a false dawn. In 1965, faced with diminishing success and racism in the USA, she moved to Europe, reinvented herself as Salena Jones and finally went on to enjoy the long, successful career she deserved. This compilation presents a retrospective of her first recordings as Joan Shaw.
