Happy Birthday, Bruz

Back in the "anything goes" days of Prohibition, there was a brief era in which gay performers were accepted by nighclub audiences, both gay and straight. One of the stars of this "Pansy Craze" was the witty and acerbic singer/composer/pianist Bruz Fletcher, who we remember on his 104th birthday today (it's still March 12th as write this here in Indianapolis, and not the 13th which is SWEDISH time).

You can find out more about Bruz's life full of incredible ups and downs, and hear his music here.
