THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

JEROME KERN

SHOW BOAT: “CAN’T HELP LOVIN’ DAT MAN”

This is early Lady Day, and Jerome hated it when any song of his was taken out of a show. He strongly disapproved of this recording. Scroll down the video, and take a look at the sidemen who accompanied Billie in 1937. There are legends on this recording.

Billie Holiday: “Can’t Help Lovin’ Dat Man”

I have to work maybe a half day one day this weekend.

I applied, online, for Social Security last month and got flagged as “Fraudulent”. So they told me I had to go into the office. Did that this morning...all signed up, and we did Medicare Part A as well. No Part B until I retire. Much relief for me. I’m legal now. LOL!!

Jerome hated it when any song of his was taken out of a show. He strongly disapproved of this recording.

That makes me sad...as a songwriter I APPRECIATE when other people (especially talented people) interpret my songs.

Oh Well.

[Publius]

It was his own personal problem. Gershwin didn’t care, and neither did Irvin Berlin nor Cole Porter. Being a purist can be a pain to everybody else.

WOO-HOO, welcome to the ‘old folks’ Club, LOL!

[left that other site]

Indeed...and the way Mechanical Royalties and Performance Licensing works, there’s $$$$ in having other people sing your songs.

I even get a few cents every time someone downloads one of my songs off the Internet.

Of course, it takes forever for it to add up to a REAL Paycheck! LOL!
