In this episode of 'Jacqui Just Chatters,' hostess Jacqui Lents explores the intriguing and often overlooked world of scandalous women in music history. She goes fangirl over Sister Rosetta Tharpe, then delves into the story of Betty Thornton and uncovers a collection of 78 records revealing the provocative genre of 'party albums' and ‘dirty blues’ both with adult themes. Jacqui also highlights other trailblazing female artists like Faye Richmonde, Sophie Tucker (while married three times, she also had lesbian relationships), and Lucille Bogan (similarly was engaged in affairs with men and women), whose risqué performances challenged norms and left lasting imprints on the music industry. Through amusing anecdotes, Jacqui invites listeners to discover the bold and naughty side of early 20th-century music.
