Morse, Ella Mae

Morse, Ella Mae
▪ 2000

      American singer whose vocals were deeply influenced by her apprenticeship with a black guitarist who taught her the blues and whose style defied characterization—it embraced boogie-woogie, blues, jazz, swing, and country—and many were convinced that she, a white singer, was black; her top hits included “Cow-Cow Boogie,” Capitol Records' first million-selling hit, “House of Blue Lights,” “Shoo-Shoo Baby,” and “The Blacksmith Blues” (b. Sept. 12, 1924, Mansfield, Tex.—d. Oct. 16, 1999, Bullhead City, Ariz.).
