One of the great leather-lunged vaudevillians, who had to project their voices to the last row of the balcony, unaided by microphones.

As child I adored Sophie Tucker. She was often on Ed Sullivan show which my grandmother never missed and I would feel real joy and delight when Sophie appeared. Her charm, radiance and often extravagant and sumptuous clothes, jewels and furs thrilled me. And seeing her here now I feel the same as 7 decades ago. Thank you for sharing this. 🥰❤️

Sophie's speaking voice is beautifully lyrical in a perfect pitch. I love the last of the red hot mamas!

Lost in time but somehow this person knew my grandfather and gave a signed copy of her autobiography to my (then teenaged) mother, addressed to them both. So curiosity led me here. My mom came from a poor family in Ohio so it's unclear how they would have met.

That’s incredible. I found her by listening to 1920s music. Amazing

I have Some Of These Days on an Edison Amberol cylinder. Her first recording of her theme.

I found out about her because I found one of her phonograph rolls at a flea market. It was sadly broken, but it is still cool

One of the reasons our society is so divided today is that we no longer have programs like Ed Sullivan, which was on Sunday evening on CBS. Ed Sullivan was a showcase for an incredibly broad range of performers: from The Beatles, Petula Clark, The Doors, Dave Clark Five, to Sophie Tucker and Lawrence Olivier and opera singers, to outrageous comics, plate spinners, and more and more. This exposed the American public to types of culture they would not know of otherwise. There is nothing like this bringing us together today.

I think you've got a point. We gathered as a community to watch this performances. We don't have a single point of reference anymore. In short, lost our moral compass.

A true gem! I have a couple of her Edison cylinders and a few of her 78s on OKeh,Columbia, Decca and Mercury. Also a Mercury LP.I have a few pieces of sheet music with Sophie's picture on it.

She, most certainly is, and was, The Last Of The Red Hot Mommas. Long may you entertain ... wherever you are!

Iv always wondered what she looked like performing, she was one of the earliest female songwriters that could perform them as well. She was wonderful and very funny in some of the songs iv herd before this
