Mildred Anderson, who recorded with organist Bill Doggett as early as 1953, only made two albums as a leader and, although thought of as as being in the R&B/blues field, both records have some notable jazz players supporting her. For this CD reissue, Anderson is joined by tenor-saxophonist Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, organist Shirley Scott, bassist George Duvivier and drummer Arthur Edgehill for such songs as "Hello Little Boy," "Person to Person" and "Kidney Stew Blues" (the latter two tunes were associated with Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson). Despite being rather brief (just 31 minutes), this set is worth checking out if quite obscure. ~ Scott Yanow https://www.allmusic.com/album/person-to-person-mw0000108898

Personnel:  Mildred Anderson - vocals;  Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis - tenor saxophone;  Shirley Scott - organ;  George Duvivier - bass;  Arthur Edgehill - drums

Bass – Leonard Gaskin; Drums – Bobby Donaldson; Guitar – Chauncey Westbrook; Organ – Robert Banks; Tenor Saxophone – Al Sears; Vocals – Mildred Anderson.

A fine singer who came over from the R&B/blues field to record two jazz-oriented albums in 1960, Mildred Anderson is joined on this CD reissue by tenor-saxophonist Al Sears, organist Robert Banks, guitarist Lord Westbrook, bassist Leonard Gaskin and drummer Bobby Donaldson. The repertoire ranges from originals to "I Ain't Mad at You," "Roll 'Em Pete" and "That Ole Devil Called Love." Considering how well she sings on this set, it is strange that Mildred Anderson would have no further opportunities to lead her own albums. ~Scott Yanow
