It's funny how a lot of people take Annette Hanshaw for a small town country girl. As a matter of fact, she was a life long New Yorker. She was born in New York, lived her whole life in New York and died in New York. She does look & sound like a small town girl, and Annette Hanshaw sounds like a small town name, but she was really a New Yorker.
Annette Hanshaw was a amazing singer, she proved she could sing in many different styles, although she quit in her early 20's. really she would have been in movies, if she hadn't quit. Annette was a worthy rival towards Ruth Etting, according to hardcore Hanshaw Fans. I personally like her Helen Kane impressions.
Thanks so much Glamourdaze. I only heard her for the first time on Russell Davies' Radio 2 programme the other day. She sang "Lover Come Back To Me" and it knocked me for six! The way she bends those notes when she sings is so bluesy. And the musicians accompanying her were the cream. She is a real find. I'd never heard of her before now. and yet, she appears in my encyclopedia of Jazz and i never knew...Thanks for letting me see her sing.
It always interests me that her look is so contemporary. Hers is a very American face typical of small town or country girls of her era, and those girls still look pretty much the same today.
@ioet I wish there was more film of her out there, but it's always a version of this one short. Check out how nervous she is. Swallows hard, licks her lips...she didn't enjoy a camera in front of her which is too bad because she was adorable, on top of being a great singer...
Wow! Such a difference! I am so happy to see her in your new color enhancement! Isnt she adorable?! I want all my viewers of my Annette videos to come over to see this! Its just a delight. And such a classic song! Thank you so much for reposting this Hanshaw treasure! :)
I am blown away. I never knew film existed by Annette before! Beautiful class act vid! I love the color! Looks like an age-faded 2 strip technicolor clip almost! Awesome. I love 50s rock n roll but always had a weakness for Annette. Sexy announcer voice! Perfect intro. Love this. Thanks for posting!
AHHHHHH!!!! She is my most favorite singer!!
