Blast from the past, Would Sophie Tucker be classed as a blues singer?
Im looking for any white female blues singer from the 1920's to the 1940's.

YIKES!!! That's a new one!!! Would you consider a Jewish Borscht Belt vaudeville performer a "BLUES SINGER"??? I wouldn't; BTW--Sophie Tucker's bawdy persona is where Bette Midler got her 'Soph & Ernie' joke routines from...

One night in bed , Ernie says to me;
"Soph--ya got no tits and a tight box"
So I says to him:
"Ernie, get off my back!!" (ba-dum-bump):razz::razz::razz:

from AMG:

Declaring "I'm the Last of the Red Hot Mamas" in one of her best-known songs, Sophie Tucker created a brassy, bawdy persona that made her a smashing success on the vaudeville circuit and the musical stage.
