Bea Booze (March 23, 1912 – November 1986), often credited as Wee Bea Booze, was an American R&B and jazz singer most popular in the 1940s.
==Biography==
She was born Beatrice Booze〔Paulus, George, Campbell, Robert, Pruter, Robert (Ebony, Chicago, Southern, and Harlem: The Mayo Williams Indies ) Retrieved Sept. 22, 2014〕 in Baltimore, the daughter of Phillip Booze and his wife Lydia.〔( Ancestry.com. 1920 United States Federal Census, Baltimore Ward 17, Baltimore (Independent City), Maryland; Roll: T625_663; Page: 5B; Enumeration District: 296; Image: 145. )〕 She made her name as a singer in Harlem, New York. She was signed by Decca Records to cover the songs and emulate the style of Lil Green,〔Harris, Sheldon (1994). ''Blues Who's Who'' (revised edition), New York: Da Capo Press, p. 61. ISBN 0-306-80155-8.〕 and, under the guidance of Sammy Price, first recorded in 1942. Her version of "See See Rider Blues", first recorded by Ma Rainey, reached number 1 on the R&B chart, after which she was billed as "The See See Rider Blues Girl". As well as singing, she played guitar in performance and on many of her recordings.
Later in the 1940s, Booze recorded as a jazz vocalist with the Andy Kirk band,〔 which featured trumpeter Fats Navarro, and also with a jazz quartet that included saxophonist George Kelly and organist Larry Johnson. She retired from the music business in the early 1950s to settle first in Baltimore and later in Scottsville, New York, although she recorded with Sammy Price in 1962.〔 She died in Scottsville in 1986.〔
