Description
Michael Corcoran, former music critic and columnist for the Austin
American-Statesman, has spent years unearthing revelatory details on the
life of Arizona Dranes, a mysterious woman behind the music that set
the mold in 1926 for rockin’ singer/ pianists with six “test records”
that have stood the test of time. Until now, very little has been
correctly reported about Dranes other than the facts that she was blind,
from Texas, had a piercing Pentecostal voice and was the first
recording artist to play piano in the secular styles of the day, while
singing words of deep praise.
