Ella Mae Morse: Ella Mae Morse - Rocks (CD)
'What is my type of song ' Ella Mae Morse once asked her mentor, the songwriter, singer and record label owner Johnny Mercer when he told her that a certain song didn't fit her style. He wasn't alone in pigeonholing her. 'Cliffie Stone said, 'You're a country singer.' And Benny Carter said, 'You're a jazz singer.' T-Bone Walker said, 'You're a rock 'n' roll, blues black singer -- that's what you are.' They were all right -- and her versatility was both Ella Mae Morse's greatest asset and her biggest problem. Ella Mae Morse came of age in the Swing Era and her own tastes tended toward blues-tinged swing jazz and torchy ballads, but her breakthrough hit from 1942, the jivey, bluesy novelty Cow Cow Boogie aside, she has ironically been less remembered for her early forays in these styles than for her 1950s stabs at R&B, rock 'n' roll and hillbilly boogie.
This collection gathers many of Ella Mae Morse's most rocking and hard-swinging sides, as compiled by the noted music historian Bill Millar. It runs the gamut, from the song that made Ella Mae Morse a star, Cow Cow Boogie, to covers of classic early '50s R&B and early rock 'n' roll like Money Honey, Have Mercy Baby and Ain't That A Shame. The telling link between these two styles were classic, forward-looking piano and vocal showcases from the early postwar period like The House Of Blue Lights and A Little Further Down The Road A Piece, many of them cut with Freddie Slack, the boogie woogie stylist with whom Ella Mae Morse had originally hit the big time.

Ella Mae Morse
Ella Mae Morse war eine der aufregendsten Sängerinnen der 40er und 50er Jahre. Eine in keine Kategorie einzuordnende, in Texas geborene weisse Sängerin, die jeden mit ihrer unglaublichen, schwarz angehauchten Stimme umwarf, seitdem sie 1942 als 17jährige zusammen mit dem Orchester des Boogie Pianisten Freddie Slack in der Szene auftauchte. Einen Namen machte sie sich damals mit dem Riesenhit Cow Cow Boogie. Es folgten dutzende weiterer Hits, welche sie zusammen mit Slack, aber auch unter ihrem eigenen Namen herausbrachte. Stücke wie Buzz Me, The House Of Blue Lights, Pig Foot Pete, The Blacksmith Blues bleiben Klassiker. Ihr Hit The House Of Blue Lights wurde als eine der erfolgreichsten Aufnahmen in der Geschichte des Rock 'n' Roll gefeiert. Ella Mae war ungewöhnlich vielseitig und war in der Lage Jazz-, Country-, R&B- und Pop-Musik, einfach alles zu singen. Sie selbst hat sich dazu wie folgt geäussert: "Cliffie Stone sagte, 'Du bist eine Country Sängerin'. Benny Carter sagte, 'Du bist eine Jazz Sängerin'. T-Boone Walker sagte, 'Du bist eine Rock 'n' Roll und Blues Sängerin'."
Sie war all das und eine instinktive, unbekümmerte und sexy Künstlerin mit einem Gefühl für den Blues, mit dem sie alles was sie sang untermalte und charakterisierte. Ella Mae Morse's gesamten Produktionen während ihrer 15 Jahre mit Capitol Records (1942-1957), haben sie hier vor sich. Darin enthalten sind die bereits oben erwähnten Hits und dutzende anderer. Weit über hundert Stücke auf fünf CDs, zusammen mit über zwanzig Songs, welche bis zum heutigen Tage noch nicht veröffentlicht wurden. Alle Stücke wurden vom Original-Master sorgfältig re-mastered. Mit Orchestern und Combos, dirigiert von Billy May, Nelson Riddle, Dave Cavanaugh und anderen und besetzt mit unglaublichen Jazz-, Blues- und Country-Musikern, wie Freddie Slack, Benny Carter, Barney Kessel, Gerald Wiggins, Pete Johnson, Jimmy Rowles, Red Callender, Al Hendrickson, Jimmy Bryant & Speedy West, Alvin Stoller und zahllosen anderen.
After her mentor, the songwriter, singer and co-owner of Capitol Records, Johnny Mercer, told her that a certain song she wanted to record wasn’t "her type" of tune, a frustrated Ella Mae Morse responded with typical pluck. "'What is my type of song?’ Cliffie Stone said, 'You’re a country singer.’ And Benny Carter said, 'You’re a jazz singer.’ T-Bone Walker said, 'You’re a rock and roll, blues black singer -- that’s what you are." They were all right -- and that versatility was both Morse’s greatest asset and her biggest problem.
