| Dedicated to the life and career of recording
artist, Miss Lee Morse.
"She was 5 feet tall. She was less than 100 lbs "soaking wet". She spent her childhood in Oregon and Idaho yet was proud of her family's Southern roots. She could hunt and fish and, if you deserved it, she could punch your lights out! She was Lee Morse, one of the most popular female recording artists during the Jazz Age 20's and 30's. And, she is worth remembering. Welcome to LeeMorse.com, a website that is dedicated to the life and career of this unique and irreplaceable talent." |
| Dismuke's Virtual Talking Machine |
| "This site is devoted to vintage music from the early decades of the 20th Century. All recordings have been transcribed into streaming Real Audio from the original 78 rpm discs in my personal collection. It is my hope that this site will help further the creation of a new generation of enthusiasts for an exciting, vibrant and, sadly, all but forgotten era of American popular culture." |
