THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

HARRY WARREN

SWEET AND LOW: “CHEERFUL LITTLE EARFUL“

This is Ella in the 1960s with Nelson Riddle at the helm and her usual perfect diction. You can hear and understand Ira Gershwin’s delicious lyrics, and the Big Band sound is a major Swing arrangement.

Ella Fitzgerald: “Cheerful Little Earful”

[luvie]

I do need to watch it again. It was just very romantic when I was a girl “in love”.

Susan Slade was another one...and Parrish. The birth rate of unwed girls began to skyrocket.

[Publius]

By George, I think you’ve got it!

[luvie]

Oooo...I like that one!

THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

HARRY WARREN

SPRING IS HERE: “CRYING FOR THE CAROLINES“

This was a Rodgers & Hart musical that ran on Broadway in 1929 and whose movie rights were purchased by Warner Brothers. It’s where the 1925 merger between Vitagraph and Warner Brothers paid off for Harry, who got three of his songs inserted into the 1930 movie. Sam Lewis and Joe Young were his lyricists.

In the early years of the Great Depression, something very interesting happened to the American popular song. In the 1920s, not many songs were set in minor keys. But by 1930, songs written in major keys were suddenly dipping into the minor for the middle eight bars. Then came songs like this that were completely in a minor key. Irving Berlin’s “Puttin’ on the Ritz” from 1931 was written in a minor key, and it’s anything but sad. But this song, like “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime,” also from 1931, fit a minor key like a glove.

This is what it looked and sounded like in the 1930 movie. One of the Brox Sisters later married Jimmy van Heusen, who will eventually get his turn at the Great American Songbook.

THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

HARRY WARREN

SPRING IS HERE: “CRYING FOR THE CAROLINES“

Before “Looney Tunes” and “Merrie Melodies,” the Warner’s animation division put out five “Spooney Melodies” cartoons featuring “the singing organist” Milton Charles and some very strange, primitive kaleidoscopic imagery. If you’ve watched the reboot of “Twin Peaks” on Showtime, you can see the influence of this film on David Lynch. This is the only Spooney cartoon that has survived; its prime purpose was to popularize the song and the Warners movie musical.

My goodness...you sure did have an “interesting” Friday.

Hopefully your heating issues are all fixed now, and all “unauthorized installations” are now corrected.

“Controlled Detonations”????? YIKES!! Your favorite trail will have to await an “All Clear” message.

THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

HARRY WARREN

SPRING IS HERE: “CRYING FOR THE CAROLINES“

This is a wonderful version from one of the great Stride pianists of the era. James takes the melody from Yiddish to black juke joint.

James P. Johnson: “Crying for the Carolines”

Tune in next weekend for more Harry Warren and the Great American Songbook.
