We feature Part 2 of Joan’s interview with Singer/Bassist Carlene Ray.

Now 85 years old, Carlene tells about her rich career in Jazz . We start with her early work with the International Sweethearts of Rhythm, an all female big band that existed from 1933-1955.

We move from there to her work helping Mary Lou Williams produce her famous Catholic Mass.
