You should have mentioned that this Roll is a "Duo-Art" reproducing roll...that why it sounds

so good...of course that brings up another topic,"what is a reproducing piano!!!"

Thanks for the comment. Look up Leo Reisman's "Puttin' On The Ritz" which is on YouTube. It is a really special arrangement, and my favorite.

[AeolianHall1]

Yes, a few collectors actually have Player Pianos that are more than musical meat grinders.

[Goderich1942]

Bevy refers to a large group of people or things. A Beau is a boyfriend

[simhopp]

what do "bevy" and "swell beaus" mean?

[DanielKnyphausen]

@simhopp Bevy - A lot.

Swell - Awesome, good, positive intonation

Beaus - Male companions that might not be official boyfriends, but may be suitors or casual dates. Term of endearment.

The lyrics were rewritten in the 1940s, not the 1950s. Not that I'm a PC fan (I can't stand PC) but I prefer the 1940s lyrics. They seem to make more sense to me.

Is there a MIDI version of this roll?

Hello, and thanks for the comment. Terms such as "High Brown" have fortunately gone out of style
