Miss Lois Powell's "Woo-Ee-Baby", an unissued acetate recorded in Little Rock, was issued by Cees Klop on "41 Years Collector Records - 40 Was Not Enough" (CLCD 4550). You can listed to this song at YouTube HERE. She sounds a little like Wanda Jackson.

A Lois Powell, "Western gal singer" was signed to the short-living Enterprise Records in 1946. Same "gal"?
Billboard, Feb. 9, 1946
Enterprises Records ad

Finally, I found two songs penned by Lois Powell in the BMI database both published by Bolivar Music Co. :
1. Honkey Tonk Town,
2. Juke Box Blues
Searching the names of the three musicians listed on the label leads to nowhere.
Thanks for the Info On Lois and acknowledging my blog post!! great to find out the info on the Rite records. The Blog is top Notch and your work is greatly appreciated!
ReplyDeleteCan you give me any info on an LP title Here's Ethel (Ethel Delaney) Ohio Record OLP 67502. The cover is still sealed but it states it is a Rite Pressing. As Soon as the mood strikes me a May crack the seal on it to see what adventures await!
I've heard only "He Taught Me How To Yodel" from this album. Good yodel and I like Miss Delaney voice. Probably from 1973.
ReplyDeleteIf this is indeed her, she is in good company on Enterprise Records, Rudy Valee' was huge (although a bit past his prime as a singer when enterprise was formed).
ReplyDeleteHead here for more info (when it gets posted up) http://favorite45.blogspot.com/2013/01/i-cant-think-of-nothing-baby.html. I talked with Charles Powell the lead guitarist. He actually sang Juke Box Blues for me, very cool. The Lois Powell on Enterprise was a different Lois Powell.
ReplyDeleteIs this the same artist as Miss Delois & The Music Men on New Colony (OH) 45 - 29389/90 "Take mmE Home Country Roads / Dady Was A preacher & Mamma Was A Go-Go Girl ?
