The best 'glugs' on Spike Jones records (Hawaiian War Chant, Sheik of Araby, etc.) came from Carl Grayson, although Mickey Katz's higher-pitch but faster glugs were also impressive.

The full vocal effect comes from, not only the throat effect, but flipping the upper lip with the tongue.

As to the original question, can girls do this? Check the 1930s records by the Boswell Sisters. Glugs in harmony!
