Annette Hanshaw, Cliff Edwards - Singing in the rain

Annette Hanshaw (oct.18.1901 - mar.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.

Hallo Folks, it is not Cliff Edwards playing it is Frank Ferea on Steel guitar with unkown second guitar and ukelele. 20 August 1929.

The uke is playing the "chunk-chunk" rhythm behind the Hawaiian...along with a guitar. Through headphones, that ''crunch'' isn't a crunch at all but a uke strum. It's the very distinctive sound of a uke.

@IGOROZKARSKY -Nope. Don't agree. Last chord is a guitar crunch plus a slight rub across the steel-string. That's the high pitched sound you tink is a uke. I play/perform banjo, tenor banjo, ukulele, banjo uke and have messed around with a "Hawaiian" (acoustic) steel and I am more or less cognisant of how they sound thru vintage mics. If Hansaw was making noise with a uke it was negligible and the great uke stylist Edwards wouldn't have wasted his time.

Cliff was the voice of Jimeny Crickett. I believe he was known as "Ukelele Ike".
