She was born in Errata, Mississippi.〔( Mississippi Blues Trail: Jones County Blues ). Retrieved 10 March 2013〕 She grew up in Gulfport where she sang in the Mount Holy Baptist Church, before moving to New York City in 1932. Her first professional engagement as a singer was at Elk's Rendezvous Club, where she was so successful that she was retained for nine months. She also sang in other clubs, including the Club Harlem, the Village Vanguard and Murrains Café.〔( Biography by Rovi at Allmusic ). Retrieved 10 March 2013〕
She first recorded, as Albinia Jones, for National Records in late 1944, with a band that included electric guitarist Leonard Ware and pianist Cliff Jackson.〔( Savoy Records Discography: 1931-1944 ).

One of her last recordings with Price in February 1949 was a rocking R&B number, "Hole In The Wall", co-written by record producer Milt Gabler and featuring the line ''"we're going to rock and roll at the Hole in the Wall tonight"'', a notably early use of the phrase.〔( Sammy Price, ''What Do They Want?: A Jazz Autobiography'', Continuum International Publishing Group, 1 Nov 1995, p.114 )〕〔( 78discography.com; Decca 48000 series Numerical Listing ).
