I remember seeing her live on tv back in the early fifties, she was so crippled by arthritus that they had to carry to the microphone, then they raised the curtains. I remember how moved my mother was by her singing. And how sad my mother seemed but at the time I did not know why.

PS
If I have a choice here Doreen I would prefer not to embed this video. I would much rather use a link. I believe I have good reasons for that. I would be happy to tell you if you want to know why.
