[Build a Custom CD] [Home] [Your Download Summary] [Learn About Subscriptions] Miss Jones was the major full time female pop artist of the early acoustic era. Her voice and characters were perfect for popular tunes, vaudeville sketches, and comedy.
If opera singers were able to break crystal glass with their voices, Miss Jones could tear paper!
Aside from her own successful solos, Miss Jones commonly teamed with Billy Murray for comic love duets, and the elocutionist Len Spencer for many vaudeville sketches.
