Biography

Ernest Jansen "Red" Ingle was born on November 7, 1906, in Toledo, Ohio. He began playing violin at age five and later switched to saxophone, becoming a professional musician by his late teens. Ingle toured with the Jean Goldkette Orchestra alongside future jazz legends Bix Beiderbecke and Frankie Trumbauer. After joining Ted Weems' Orchestra in 1931, he gained significant success. Ingle's comedic talents led him to Spike Jones & His City Slickers, where his stage presence transformed the band's act. He left the City Slickers in November 1946 and formed Red Ingle and His Natural Seven with several former City Slickers members. The group had hits including "Cigareets, Whuskey, and Wild, Wild Women" and "Them Durn Fool Things". Ingle also collaborated with Jo Stafford on the hit single "Tim-Tayshun", which sold three million copies. He passed away on September 6, 1965.
