Comments and Reviews


slholzer 21st Apr 2016		The composer of side B has been variously shown on Harmony 46-H as Irving King and Irving Berlin. According to Wikipedia, King is the proper credit. It is a pseudonym for a British songwriting team consisting of Jimmy Campbell and Reg Connelly. They used the song to start their publishing company, sold 2 million copies, and even made a record of it under the name of Irving King.



slholzer 21st Apr 2016		Billy West was usually, although not 100% exclusively, a pseudonym for singer Billy Jones. Similarly, Bob Thomas was usually, but not 100% exclusively, a pseudonym for singer, Ernest Hare. The Online Discographical Project favors them as the true identities of the singers on this disc. The frequent pairing of the two pseudonyms on Harmony recordings and the well-known pairing of the two singers as The Happiness Boys makes that a likely proposition. Both names have been used, however, by singer Arthur Fields on at least one Triangle issue. The Bob Thomas name has also been used by Vernon Dalhart and possibly by another unidentified singer on several Grey Gull issues. Fields and Dalhart both appear on Harmony recordings. Dalhart generally did so under the name of Mack Allen when he was not identified openly.
