Ms. Andrews and her sisters, Patty and Laverne, were one of the most successful women's singing groups, boasting an impressive record of 19 gold records and sales of nearly 100 million copies.
The sisters began their remarkable musical journey in the early 1930s, when the devastating effects of the Great Depression wiped out their father's business, forcing them to find alternative means of sustenance.
It was in 1937 that the trio of sisters scored their first major hit with the iconic song 'Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen', marking the beginning of their illustrious career.
In addition to their best-known hits, including 'Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy' and 'Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree', the trio's extensive discography also featured 'Rum and Coca Cola', a testament to their remarkable talent and versatility.
The trio officially disbanded following the untimely death of Laverne in 1967, but they temporarily put aside their differences to star in the 1974 Broadway musical "Over Here!".
Ms. Andrews embarked on a solo career in 1979, releasing her album and its title, 'Maxene: An Andrews Sister', in 1990. Her last performance was on Sunday, October 8th, 1995, in the show 'Swing Time Canteen', at New York City's Blue Angel Theater.
