The American Song Book contains beautiful reproductions of original sheet music of the Tin Pan Alley Era. This book places these songs in historical context and provides fascinating and amusing backgrounds to the songs. Based on original archival research. The American Song Book Volume I: The Tin Pan Alley Era is the first in a projected five-volume series of books that will reprint original sheet music including covers of songs that constitute the enduring standards of Irving Berlin Jerome Kern the Gershwins and other lyricists and composers of what has been called the 'Golden Age' of American popular music. These songs havedone what popular songs are not supposed to do-stayed popular. They have been reinterpreted year after year generation after generation by jazz artists such as Charlie Parker and Art Tatum Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. In the 1950s Frank Sinatra began recording albums of these standards and was soon followed by such singers as Tony Bennet Doris Day Willie Nelson and Linda Ronstadt. In more recent years these songs have been reinterpreted by Rod Stewart Harry Connick Jr. Carly Simon Lady GaGa K.D. Laing Paul McCartney and most recently Bob Dylan. As such these songs constitute the closest thing America has to a repertory of enduring classical music. In addition to reprinting the sheet music for these classic songs authors Philip Furia and Laurie Patterson place these songs in historical context with essays about the sheet-music publishing industry known as Tin Pan Alley the emergence of American musical comedy on Broadway and the 'talkie' revolution that made possible the Hollywood musical. The authors also provide biographical sketches of songwriters performers and impresarios such as Florenz Ziegfeld. In addition they analyze the lyrical and musical artistry of each song and relate anecdotes sometimes amusing sometimes poignant about how the songs were created. The American
