SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The first comprehensive guide to pre-1934 female popular vocal recordings sung in English--from around the world and including all styles--this discographical study includes solos, duets, trios, and quartets composed by the great songwriters of the early 1900s (from Irving Berlin to Victor Young). The majority of the listings includes material that has not been previously published, and a large number of entries profile such prolific artists as Helen Clark and Gladys Rice, who are not in previous discographies. A special feature includes data on sound-on-disc recording made for early talking-pic.
