Annette Hanshaw (October 18, 1901 - March 13, 1985) was one of the first great female jazz singers. In the late 1920s she ranked alongside Ethel Waters, Bessie Smith and the Boswell Sisters.
Her singing style was relaxed and suited the new jazz-influenced pop music of the late 1920s. Although she had a low opinion of her own singing, she continues to have fans because of how she combined the voice of an ingenue with the spirit of a flapper.

-- ... she's just too sweet for words. The relaxed singing style = so sexy. How can a person resist a voice and delivery like hers?
Women and singers like this just don't exist anymore.

She's the best and the first of her kind. I also admire Ruth Etting, Marion Harris, and Cliff Edwards for their similar style and incredible vocal control. Thanks!

Great song. Annette was undoubtedly the greatest female singer of the Jazz age. Singers of today should listen to this... and then retire.
