Annette Hanshaw
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.
Hanshaw made her one and only appearance on film[1] in the 1933 Paramount short Captain Henry's Radio Show, "a picturization" of the popular Thursday evening radio program Maxwell House Show Boat, in which she starred from 1932 to 1934. Having grown tired of show business, in the late 1930s Hanshaw retired and settled into married life with her husband, Pathé Records executive Herman "Wally" Rose. Later in life, in a would-be comeback, she recorded two demo records, but they were never released. Between September 1926 and February 1934, she recorded prolifically. From 1926-1928 she recorded for Pathe (her sides were released on both the Pathe and Perfect labels. Starting in June 1928, she recorded for Columbia, most of these were issued on their dime store labels Harmony, Diva, Clarion and Velvet Tone. A handful were also released on their regular price Columbia and OKeh. Although most were released under her own name, she was renamed Gay Ellis (for sentimental numbers) and Dot Dare or Patsy Young (for her Helen Kane impersonations). Starting in August 1932, she began recording for the ARC with her recordings issued on their Melotone, Perfect, Conqueror, Oriole and Romeo. Her final session, February 3, 1934 was placed on ARC's Vocalion label. Song #1 I Get The Blues When It Rains (1930)
I Get the Blues When It Rains she has her own opening then she sings the refrain: I get the blues when it rains Song #2 I'm Somebody's Somebody Now _Joe Venuti, Eddie Lang, Adrian Rollini_1927 Couldn't find the lyrics so just enjoy what music sounded like way back then: Song #3 Couldn't find her version so here is the original one : Nick Lucas - Tip-Toe Through the Tulips
This is very very rare Tip-toe Thru The Tulips With Me by Nick Lucas TIPTOE THROUGH THE TULIPS Hope you enjoy this old old old recording:
The blues I can't lose when it rains
Each little drop that falls on my window pane
Always reminds me of tears I've shed in vain.
I sit and wait for the sun
To shine down on me once again
It rained when I found you, rained when I lost you
That's why I get the blues when it rains.
--- Instrumental ---
I get the blues when it rains
The blues I can't lose when it rains
Each little drop that falls on my window pane
Always reminds me of tears I've shed in vain.
I sit and wait for the sun
To shine down on me once again
It rained when I found you, rained when I lost you
That's why I get the blues when it rains...
(Al Dubin/Joe Burke)
Charted in 1929 by Nick Lucas (#1); Jean Goldkette (#5); Johnny Marvin (#11);
and Roy Foz (#18)
Charted at # 17 in 1968 by Tiny Tim
Tiptoe to the window, by the window that is where I'll be
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me!
Tiptoe from your pillow, to the shadow of a willow tree
And tiptoe through the tulips with me!
Knee deep in flowers will stray, we'll keep the showers away.
And if I kiss you in the garden, in the moonlight, will you pardon me?
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me!

This is wonderful, Richard, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I really do want to "save" a recording of Tiptoe Through the Tulips, as you know, and I have found Annette's recording of it on YouTube. I have heard the very rare Nick Lucas' version (which is quite nostalgic, isn't it?), but if you haven't heard Hanshaw's, you really have to check it out. So many people think that Tiny Tim's version is THE version, but Annette's is the way it was meant to be sung and heard, which is the way Lucas treats it. Thanks again...I really do appreciate this.
Ty my pretty magical friend. Watch for music just for you and my favorites, whom will they be?????????????????????
The Grouch has left the building
You better some of those spiders were hungry, think I saw a cow down there too. I enjoy music as you know but the beast enjoyment is the sharing with a friend. I counted the other day over 56,000 songs, 56,673 to be exact. 331 cow songs roflmao
