Ella Mae Morse isn’t as well remembered today as other singers from the swing era, but she ought to be. Born in Mansfield, Texas, Ella was a slender little thing with a great set of pipes who teamed up with Freddie Slack and his orchestra in the 1940’s for a string of hits. Here she is with Freddie and the boys performing “Cow Cow Boogie”.

ReplyDeleteI've spent several months in Texas and it's Good Country. The folks as bold as brass and don't kiss arse.
