Suspicious Blues

written by Leonard Feather

performed by The Spirits Of Rhythm, vocal by Georgie Vann and Leo Watson

recorded in Hollywood, CA, 24 January 1945

released as Black & White 23 in the Spring of 1945*

Here is the fourth of six masters recorded that Wednesday. This last incarnation of The Spirits Of Rhythm were:

Leo Watson - scat vocals

Teddy Bunn, Ulysses Livingston - electric guitars

Leonard Feather - piano

Red Callender - bass

Georgie Vann - drums

*Knowing the session date is correct, the earliest any of these sides could have available would have been in February. There is an ad in Billboard magazine, dated 25 August 1945, that finds all three releases available through the Paul Reiner Music Distributing Company, with offices in Cleveland, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
