Ruth Etting - St. Louis Blues 1936 (film)

[@aporist]

This song reminds me of two books I've read as a teen - the Great Getsby of Scott Fitzgerald and Ragtime of E. Doctorow. Holy Cat, I was impressed, I have the books in my own library, must throw an eye on them to see whether I'm still impressed.

The voice of an absolute angel. "The Happy Singer Of Sad Songs"

This film records the end of a great 1920's singer. For many years married to gangster Moe Snyder and retiring in 1937 after scandle. ( This story is easy to find)

Most singers reach stardom at an early age. This lady is 40 years old in this video. This is super impressive. Amazing singer.

Yes, she is wonderful. I think that she never took singing lessons.

[@ew1usnr]

She has a perfect voice.

[@unmonje55]

Epic !

[@78rpmsnightbarnowl89]

Yes, she's so wonderful!

Good song. But, listen to the Bob Wills version. Great.

Wrong song for Etting. It's like hearing Karen Carpenter's ridiculous rendition of "Please, Mr. Postman."

[@MooPotPie]

A square and wholly unconvincing rendition of this material. Wrong singer for the song.
