Juke Jules SUBS 26th Dec 2014 | | 78 RPMArthur Collins - The Preacher And The Bear / Bake Dat Chicken Pie (1913) | The Preacher And The Bear had been a long-standing gramophone success for many artists. Written in 1904 by music publisher Arthur Longbrake under the pseudonym Joe Arzonia, it was recorded many times by Arthur Collins and released on cylinder and disc by many labels, starting probably with a Victor release in 1905. The novelty song was the best selling gramophone record for many years and Collins sold in the millions over 20 years, including at least one UK release by The Gramophone Company which was accompanied by an explanatory leaflet of the 'blackface' dialect.
This video is of a 1912 cylinder recording, giving a long track time of 4:45 minutes, and the accompanying notes give a detailed biography of Arthur Collins

P. Christy of Christy's Minstrels in 1867, so there may have been some re-attribution

If this Harry sounds of mature years it could be possible that it was the same Uncle Harry who wrote Holiday Hours in Animal Land in 1890.
