This was written by Peter de Rose, who had never left New York until he was invited to Hollywood when it was used in a movie. His widow told me that he was put on a horse for a publicity shot and fell straight off it.
One of the great songs long forgotten and seldom played today. Perfect tempo to show off the master's poetry without flash. What a gifted pianist. Please see if you can find Deep Purple by Joe Sullivan, a pianist of the same era as forgotten as this beautiful tune.
wrt: :"Deep Purple by Joe Sullivan\" - Thanks for the heads up. I wish these recordiings were cleaner, but I'd rather deal with the hiss and pops than wipe out the highs. Oh well.
Absolutely Beautiful. Back when music was music and classy.
