Gracie Fields

Lancashire Born I believe, Gracie Fields is Full of Gusto. 

See Gracie get paraded down the street by dockers in this Gracefully senitmental wartime song : WISH ME LUCK (1939 from film SHIPYARD SALLY)


Dame Gracie Fields (1898 - 1979)

Her rags-to-riches story inspired a nation: from a back street terrace in Rochdale to a villa in Capri, armed with nothing but a glorious voice and bags of personality.
