Biography in Brief: Ruth Etting

Watch the video to see a brief biography of Ruth Etting in photos and music.
This is my first video for what I hope will be a long and productive series documenting singers and songwriters of the phonograph era. The wind up phonographs themselves and how-to's on how to keep your Talking Machine in tip-top shape.

Although she was way before my time I loved her singing and style when I first herd her on radio as a young kid. I'm 78 years old now and I still love to here her voice singing.

Thanks for the video. I stumbled across her music while browsing 1920's music and am now a new fan of hers! :)

And you have her name.

That was fun. Thanks. Quite a tapestry of life's mercurial romp. Ten Cents A Dance. A bit of flesh. A singer who wears a beautiful song. So much more engaging than today's obvious sell.
