about
Jimmy Yancey with Mama Yancey James Edwards “Jimmy” Yancey (February 20, 1898 - September 17, 1951) was an African American pianist, composer, and lyricist, most noted for his pianowork in the boogie woogie style. Estelle “Mama” Yancey (January 1, 1896 – April 19, 1986) was an American blues singer. In 1917, when she was 21, she married Jimmy Yancey, who had traveled the U.S. and Europe as a vaudeville dancer. She often sang with him at informal get-togethers and house parties in the 1930s and 1940s and performed with him at Carnegie Hall, New York in 1948. Because Jimmy Yancey was a great boogie-woogie/blues piano player, Estelle recorded frequently with her husband. Jimmy and Mama Yancey recorded the first album ever made by Atlantic Records.
