Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. Stated First Printing. First Edition. From the front cover: 'The salty and uninhibited autobiography of one of the greatest of the old-time jazz pioneers. Including ten original Perry Bradford songs and more than 50 pages of photographs. You can see the covers in my photos. They are very clean. There are a few small spots of smooth rubbing, a few corner creases. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The pages are exceptionally clean. Scrolling through, I haven't found any instances of soiling. A few early pages have a small crease below their top corner and above their bottom corner, none near the print. A handful of consecutive pages in the middle of the book have a very light crease above their bottom corners, again far from the print. There are no placeholder creases. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. 'Perry Bradford was an African American composer, songwriter, and vaudeville performer. His most notable songs included Crazy Blues, That Thing Called Love, and You Can't Keep A Good Man Down. He was nicknamed Mule because of his stubbornness, and he is credited with finally persuading Okeh Records to work with Mamie Smith leading to her historic blues recording in 1920. In 1965, Bradford's autobiography Born With the Blues was published (New York: Oak Publications) with a foreword by Noble Sissle.'.…

Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. This is an extremely rare copy of Westward Bound, by Noble Sissle and Harry Revel. Note that this is the covers only; the two-sided page with the 3 and 4 is missing but can be downloaded from several sites. 'Handsome' Noble Sissle (1889-1975) was the American jazz lyricist, composer, singer, playwright and band leader who was Eubie Blake's writing partner. He is also known for discovering, and first recording, Lena Horne, and for founding the Negro Actors Guild. His song Viper Mad was in Woody Allen's film Sweet and Lowdown. Harry Revel (1905-1958) was a British-American composer, mostly for theatre. He was Mack Gordon's writing partner. He was nominated for an Academy Award in 1942 for "There's a Breeze on Lake Louise", from The Mayor of 44th Street, and again in 1945 for "Remember Me to Carolina", from Minstrel Man. Westward Bound was first recorded by The Four Harmony Kings, whose photo is on the cover. This piece is in mint condition, with minor scuffing to the back. It is in its original music store wrapper.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Dust Jacket. Noble Lee Sissle was an American jazz composer, lyricist, bandleader, singer, and playwright, best known for the Broadway musical Shuffle Along (1921), and its hit song "I'm Just Wild About Harry".In early 1916, Sissle joined one of the society orchestras organized by James Reese Europe in New York. He persuaded Europe to also hire his friend, pianist and composer Eubie Blake, and later in the year helped Europe organize a regimental band for the 15th Infantry Regiment (Colored) of the New York National Guard. This would later become the New York 369th Infantry "Hell Fighters" Regiment that served nobly in France in World War I, with Europe as a lieutenant and Sissle as his sergeant and lead vocalist.Shortly after World War I, Sissle joined forces with Blake to form a vaudeville music duo, "The Dixie Duo". After vaudeville, the pair began work on the jazz musical revue Shuffle Along, which incorporated many songs they had written, and had a book written by F. E. Miller and Aubrey Lyles. When it premiered in 1921, Shuffle Along became the first hit musical on Broadway written by and about African Americans. It was the first all-black show to reach the Broadway stage in over a decade and included a teenage Josephine Baker among the performers. The musical introduced songs such as "I'm Just Wild About Harry" and "Love Will Find a Way". Sissle died in Tampa in 1975. The sheet music is accompanied by a cut signature mounted on part of a black album page, 4 3/4 by 1 1/2 inches .; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 4 pages; Signed by Author.…

couverture souple. Josephine avant Baker ! | Editions Francis Salabert | Paris 1924 | 27.10 x 34.80 cm | une feuille rempliée | Édition originale française de cette partition pour piano et chant, premier plat illustré en couleurs par Roger de Valério (1886-1951), alors dessinateur exclusif des éditions Salabert. Bel exemplaire. * Manda est extraite de la comédie musicale américaine The Chocolate Dandies, créée à Broadway le 1er septembre 1924 sur une musique d'Eubie Blake et des paroles de Noble Sissle. Le rôle-titre y fut créé par la jeune Valaida Snow. La distribution comptait également, dans un rôle comique nommé « That Comedy Chorus Girl », une certaine Joséphine Baker, alors âgée de dix-huit ans, remarquée par la presse new-yorkaise pour son numéro de danseuse volontairement désynchronisée et son strabisme comique imitant l'acteur burlesque Ben Turpin. Cette édition française, publiée par Francis Salabert dès 1924 avec une adaptation des paroles par Jacques-Charles, futur créateur des grandes revues du Casino de Paris, atteste ainsi d'une diffusion du répertoire scénique afro-américain en France plus d'un an avant l'éclat parisien de La Revue Nègre (octobre 1925), qui fera de Joséphine Baker une vedette. La couverture de Roger de Valério, dans une veine expressionniste caractéristique de son travail pour Salabert, recourt à une imagerie caricaturale du corps noir dont la généalogie précise reste à établir : elle se situe au croisement d'une tradition coloniale française de représentation fantasmée du corps noir, antérieure et autonome, et d'une tradition américaine issue des minstrel shows, importée en France avec le jazz. Cette imagerie relève de ce que les historiens de l'art nomment la « négrophilie » : un engouement caractéristique de l'avant-garde parisienne des années 1920 pour la culture noire, jazz, danse et art africain, qui se construit paradoxalement sur les mêmes ressorts stéréotypés que cette réhabilitation est appelée à dénoncer: la fascination pour le « primitif » et la caricature raciale procédant d'un seul et même geste. C'est cette ambivalence, propre à la période, qui permet à une scène musicale diffusant une iconographie dévalorisante d'offrir dans le même temps à des artistes noirs américains une ascension, une célébrité et une liberté que la ségrégation leur refusait aux États-Unis. Quelques mois à peine après cette édition, l'arrivée de Joséphine Baker à Paris cristallisera ce paradoxe, dans une ville déjà réputée à l'échelle internationale comme un foyer de libération des murs et de rencontre entre créateurs de l'Ancien et du Nouveau Monde. Ce document éclaire ainsi, en creux, l'ambivalence de la réception française du jazz naissant, une année avant la consécration de sa plus célèbre interprète. | [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION FOLLOWS] First French edition of this score for voice and piano, the upper wrapper colour-illustrated by Roger de Valério (1886-1951), then the exclusive cover artist for Éditions Salabert. A fine copy. * Manda is taken from the American musical comedy The Chocolate Dandies, which opened on Broadway on 1 September 1924, with music by Eubie Blake and lyrics by Noble Sissle. The title role was created by the young Valaida Snow. The cast also included, in a comic role named « That Comedy Chorus Girl », a certain Josephine Baker, then aged eighteen, who attracted the attention of the New York press with her deliberately out-of-step dancing and comic squint modelled on the slapstick actor Ben Turpin. This French edition, published by Francis Salabert as early as 1924 with an adaptation of the lyrics by Jacques-Charles, the future creator of the great revues at the Casino de Paris, thus bears witness to the circulation of African American stage repertoire in France more than a year before the Parisian sensation of La Revue Nègre in October 1925, which would make Josephine Baker a star. Roger de Valério's cover, executed in the Expressionist vein characteristic of his work for Salabert, draws upon a ca.…

James Reese Europe (18811919) was a composer and bandleader instrumental in the transition from ragtime to jazz, whose popularity and influence is impossible to overstate. He conducted the Clef Club Orchestra in New York City, which only played music by African-American composers and was the first Black orchestra to perform at Carnegie Hall. Europe's Society Orchestra toured the country with dancers Vernon and Irene Castle, popularizing ragtime dancing. In 1916, Europe enlisted with the 369th Infantry Regiment, also known as the Harlem Hellfighters, a primarily Black regiment that became one of the most highly decorated American units in World War I. Europe was a second lieutenant and led the Hellfighters Band, which toured France in 1818 and is credited with bringing jazz to the continent of Europe. James Europe died in Boston in 1919 when a member of his band, taking issue with Europe's criticism, stabbed him in the neck during the intermission of a concert at Mechanics Hall. Offered here is the sheet music for "Good Night Angeline", composed by James Reese Europe and his frequent collaborators, Noble Sissle (18891975) and James Herbert "Eubie" Blake" (18871983). The cover features a photograph of the Hellfighters Band above a portrait of Europe. We find four other copies of "Good Night Angeline", at the Oakland Public Library, the Library Company of Philadelphia, the Library of Congress, and the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture. Of interest to scholars of African-American musical and military history. Small ownership stamp to top margin, some light wear, overall very good. Sheet music measuring 9 ¼ x 12 ¼ inches.…
