Sloppy Drunk Woman

Norridge Mayhams and his Barbecue BoysVocal by Johnnie TunsillVocal blues with orchestra acc.Vocalion 034951937 Sloppy Drunk Woman Early Norridge Mayhams later better known as Norris Mayhams or Norris The Troubadour, rather well-documented by enthusiasts of song-poems and other eccentricities. Not much is known about the vocalist. Johnnie Tunsill (1904-1982) was a New-York entertainer during the thirties. She was a "colored" singer at the Harlem Opera House in 1931, a member of at least two Broadway musicals in 1938-1938 : "a sepia gal who can strike out some neat warbling" Nothing more is found about her, unfortunately.
