Sporting a resume
that hearkens back to the glory days of the Chess Records empire, Sugar Pie
DeSanto at 84, is still recording and occasionally performing, having
outlived many of her peers. She was legendary for her incendiary stage
performances. Creative A & R man for Chess, Roquel "Billy"
Davis once declared, Sugar Pie could outperform Etta James, with whom The
Sugar sang a handful of duets. Having written well over 100 songs, Sugar Pie
has a new release on Jasman Records entitled, Sugar's Suite a 4 song EP
produced by James Moore, Sr., with arrangements by three-time Emmy
Producer/Arranger Bill Jolly. The creative design and packaging are
skillfully augmented with images from one of Italy's top photographers,
Gianni Grandi.
