caption at left "Kay Starr didn't learn to read music because it always got into the way of her
interpretation of a song" American jazz singer Kay Starr (1922-2016) began her
career at age 7 on the radio in Dallas: at age 10 she made $3.00 a day on her
own 15-minute program! At age 15 she earned her first band contract with the
Joe Venuti Orchestra. She later sang with Bob Crosby and Glenn Miller. In
1949 she got her first top 10 hit with "So Tired". Starr released dozens of
charting singles over the next 25 years, including "Hoop-de-Doo" (1950),
"Side by Side" (1953), and "My Heart Reminds Me" (1957). Two singles
reached the #1 spot: "Wheel of Fortune" (1952) and "The Rock and Roll
Waltz" (1956). Starr continued to tour and record into the 1970s. Vertical fold
crease. Toned. Otherwise, fine condition.
