Ruth Brown, circa 1955




The official Ruth Brown website is here. Check out the photos. Some of them are gorgeous.

I really wanted to find a video of Ruth singing "Wild, Wild Young Men," my favorite of her songs. No luck, but I did find an excellent use of the recording. Consider this my nature post for the day.

Yeah, she's great. It's impossible to be in a bad mood when she's singing.
