Background notes
Archive material and source history
Esther Walker was a blues singer from New Orleans who recorded for Imperial Records in the 1940s. She worked with producer Dave Bartholomew and had a hit with "Blues (My Naughty Sweetie Gives To Me)" in 1941. Another song from that period, "Slow And Easy," shows up in her catalog.
She sang in a style that fit with other New Orleans musicians of her time, though the details of her collaborations are sparse in the record. What remains are a few recordings that suggest she had a place in the local scene when blues and early R&B were taking shape there.
Her birth year is listed as 1916, and she seems to have been active through at least the early 1950s. Beyond the songs, there isn't much to go on, no later career moves, no comeback stories, just those Imperial sides and her name in the credits.
