>Webb died on June 16 of complications from spinal tuberculosis; Ella Fitzgerald took over his band, making her the first-ever female bandleader, and she held the job for three years until the wartime dissolution of big bands and changing trends made her move to being a solo singer inevitable.[9]

Also Kay Starr makes her recording debut this year with two Glenn Miller sides. She was a fill-in here because the original singer Marion Hutton was out sick, and she hated these recordings because the arrangements were meant for Hutton's higher-pitched voice. That said, Kay was only 18 here and sounds pretty much like a kid, not at all like her mature voice you would be used to from her 50s hits.

If you fellas ever catch Major Bowles' Amateur Hour they got this little-snot nosed brat Theresa Breur who is a regular feature i suppose because audiences find a 2nd grader singing "It Don't Mean a Thing If It Don't Got That Swing" endearing. I vote for obnoxious myself.

That fella's getting a lot of attention lately, the girls can't get enough of him. Don't see what the appeal is though.

And yeah, one of the year's big hits. A lot of critics hated her vocals at the time and said she was tuneless.

Ran into her mother at the post office in Toledo last month. Absolute blowhard bragging to everyone in listening range how her daughter is going to be a singing sensation someday. God I hope not.

There were lots of jazz boomers in that era saying how jazz died after 1928 or after the Original Dixieland Jass Band disbanded or something like that, they were called moldy figs.

I'm amazed how little his voice changed over the years because a lot of the singers mentioned in here sound very different from their later postwar selves. You could pick a Como recording from nearly any decade of his career and hardly notice the difference.

He also this year recorded "The Missouri Waltz" with the original uncensored, problematic lyrics unlike most postwar versions.

Didn't the fat lady have some other song that was a giant hit this year? Ah, I don't remember.

A lot of her records are missing from Youtube but Crosby said she was his favorite singer he ever collabed with. This could be just a generational thing though because they were only a few years apart in age and doubtlessly had a lot more in common than he did with someone like Rosemary Clooney.
