From the rear cover: "THE UNSUNG SONGWRITERS is dedicated to a period in the history of American music that author Warren Vache calls the 'Golden Age of Songwriting' and to the men and women who made it great. Contrary to the widely held opinion that most of our hit and standard songs were composed by a handful of top writers - Berlin Gershwin Kern Porter and Rodgers - the fact is that the vast majority of them were written by relatively unknown composers. Additionally while the writers who contributed material to the Broadway stage - and to some extent Hollywood musicals - were able to establish distinguished reputations the many freelance writers who were responsible for some of our best songs remained unrecognized by the general public. In this volume you will find Al Neiberg the author of IT'S THE TALK OF THE TOWN Frank Perkins who wrote EMALINE and STARS FELL ON ALABAMA Maceo Pinkard the mind behind SWEET GEORGIA BROWN and SUGAR Ralph Rainger who is responsible for WHEN A WOMAN LOVES A MAN Harry Woods for TRY A LITTLE TENDERNESS J. Fred Coots for YOU GO TO MY HEAD and many more. THE UNSUNG SONGWRITERS brings long overdue recognition to these influential writers and at the same time highlights a neglected but important segment of our American musical heritage.".

1924139822London: Published Privately at the Savoy 1924. First and only edition one of 1000 copies issued as a "first birthday" celebratory publication; scarce particularly so in the fragile glassine jacket. Loosely inserted in this copy is a slip printing soprano Luisa Tetrazzini's birthday wishes in green. The Savoy Orpheans were formed by former army bandmaster Debroy Somers in 1923 and were resident at the Savoy Hotel until contractual wrangles between W. F. De Mornys entertainments manager at the Savoy and the hotel company led to the orchestra disbanding on New Year's Eve 1927. During their four year tenure the Orpheans were among the cream of British dance bands and "patterned their instrumentation arrangements and classy presentations upon Whiteman's model" Baade p. 25. This attractive publication was printed at the Baynard Press which "employed highly skilled craftsmen. and printed many of London Transport's pictorial posters. the Baynard Press was amongst the largest and most technically accomplished printing firms in Britain" Science Museum. Library Hub locates only the British Library copy among British and Irish institutional libraries; WorldCat adding another copy at Rutgers University New Jersey. Square octavo pp. 16. With 3 tipped-in photogravures 2 showing the Orpheans the other the Savoy-Havana band all in situ in the Savoy Ballroom title page printed in green and pink decorative head- and tailpieces and occasional decorative sprays of notes in pink.

1937206792Philadelphia: Pi Xi Fraternity 1937. Small stain at edge otherwise fine and fresh. Double sided handbill 6 x 9 in. printed on both sides. Original advertising handbill promoting the event at Philadelphia's Alcazar Ballroom Friday April 30th 1937. A colorful flyer featuring the caricature picture of the drummer-bandleader clad in a red tuxedo and swinging his sticks against a backdrop of flying musical notes. On the verso is "An Open Letter to the Dance Lovers of this City" touting the group as "America's Greatest Rhythm Band." After winning first prize at the famed Apollo Theatre's Amateur Night in 1934 at the age of seventeen Ella Fitzgerald was soon introduced to Webb and joined his band the following year. By 1937 she had become a mainstay of the group with her name being prominently highlighted in promotions. After Webb's early death in 1939 she carried on as leader of the band. An excellent evocation of the height of the Swing Era. Pi Xi Fraternity unknown
