Hall of Fame: The Singer's Singer

Trapped History

About this episode

Join us as Stephen Bourne unveils his Hall of fame nominee. You may remember, Stephen was our guest on our episode about the forgotten singer who was Adelaide Hall, and he doesn't stray far from the path here!


Mabel was born in Burton-upon-Trent, but she made her name in Paris and New York, where Cole Porter, Gertrude Stein and even Ol' Blue Eyes himself fell under her spell. Her story is eye-opening and a real counterpoint to Adelaide's.


When you've finished with this, turn to the main episode: Adelaide Hall – The Greatest Singer you've Never Heard Of.
