Should “One the Avenue” on the Irving Berlin Checklist be “On the Avenue”?
Fixed
Are you aware that there are two totally different versions of “The First Lady” from MR. PRESIDENT (1962) and “We Should Care” from THE COCOANUTS (1925)? There is also an “Alice in Wonderland” (completely different song from THE CENTURY GIRL, 1916) used in the Fourth MUSIC BOX REVUE (1924) and PUTTIN’ ON THE RITZ (1930). I can provide scans of the sheet music for all three.
Do you think you can find “I Love to Dance” (1915) from STOP, LOOK, LISTEN? The chorus of the song is published in Piano Selection from STOP, LOOK, LISTEN, but I want the version with the verse and the lyrics.
I have “Laugh It Up” (1962) from MR. PRESIDENT made from a Rehearsal Copy.
I also have a piano accompaniment I made from lead sheet in a Fake Book of “A Couple of Song and Dance Men” (BLUE SKIES).
I have from Professional Copies, “Business for a Good Girl Is Bad” and “Sing a Song of Sing-Sing” from MISS LIBERTY. And “SEX Marches On” from LOUISIANA PURCHASE (1940), along with the two “Opening Chorus” and “Opening Letter” songs from that show.
I have a manuscript of “Pickaninny Mose” (1921).
Let me know how I can help.
Yes. Please send any songs we don’t have to screamnj@msn.com
