Hattie Burleson

about

Texas jazz blues singer Hattie Burleson recorded four tracks in Dallas, TX, for Brunswick Records in October 1928. Two years later she recorded three sides in Grafton, WI, for Paramount Records. Little else is known about her life, save that she lived in the famed Deep Ellum area of downtown Dallas, where she operated a dancehall for a time. She is probably best remembered for her song "Sadie's Servant Room Blues," which chronicles the long hours and poor pay of domestic service workers.
