    Raw, blues belter Big Maybelle's classic Rojac recordings. You could always tell it was Maybelle singing, four bars or less into any of her classic platters. She had a curious burr in her voice and a touching vulnerability. It was particularly acute on the smoky after-hours blues ballads that were her specialty from the early 1950s on. Tear-ya-heart soul!
