______________________________ Today’s post features the lyric of the song “So It’s Spring,” written by Tommy Wolf (music) and Wayne Arnold (words). I’d been unable to find the lyric online so I decided to transcribe the words myself, a job which I completed late last night before retiring. The lyric is found below the video in the post, and has also been added to my page on the song, which I’d published about a year ago. That page is here: So It’s Spring.
The
earliest recording of “So It’s Spring” that I’m aware of is that released on the 1958 Tommy Wolf album _Spring Can Really Hang YouUp the Most_
,
Fraternity Records F-1010. The album was recorded on 5 & 6 September1957
,
and features a trio consisting of Tommy Wolf (piano, vocals), Monty Budwig (bass), and Shelly Manne (drums). Other recordings include thefollowing:
* Jackie & Roy with Bill Holman’s Orchestra, released on the 1958 album _Free and Easy!_,
ABC-Paramount ABC-207 * Carol Lawrence with orchestra conducted by Harry Betts, released on the 1962 album _This Heart of Mine_,
album produced by Jackie Mills and Tommy Wolf * Ed Vodicka & Friends, released on the 1987 CD album _Portfolio_, Best
Recordings BR89-512
These are actually the only four recordings of the song that I’veyet found.

When the snow and the sleet are done And the woolens are put away Everyone shouts hooray! It’s spring, hooray! But I never have figured out What the hullabaloo’s about Why do the people shoutHooray! hooray!
I don’t give a tooralay If it’s April, March, or May This is what I’ve got to saychorus:
1
So it’s gonna be spring, so what?So it’s spring
Is that good?
When I walk through the park I just walk through the park And go home to my own little bed2
So the bird’s on the wing, so what?I should care
Let it wing
All that passionate cooing The pigeons are doing Don’t matter a smidgen Unless you’re a pigeon I’m not, and so what if it’s spring3
Each bud that is bursting in bloom Unfolds to the delicate bee And though such hocus-pocusMay tickle a crocus
It’s kind of revolting to me4
Gee, so it’s gonna be spring, so what?So it’s spring
Nitchevo
If you’re only a guy with a gleam in his eye And with no one exciting for hand-to-hand fighting It might as well be HalloweenSee what I mean!
So it’s spring
(repeat 3)
Each bud that is bursting in bloom Unfolds to the delicate bee And though such hocus-pocusMay tickle a crocus
It’s kind of revolting to me (repeat 4, with variation) Yes, it’s gonna be spring, so what?So it’s spring
Nitchevo
If you’re only a guy with a gleam in his eye And with no one exciting for hand-to-hand fighting It might as well be HalloweenSee what I mean
So it’s spring!

_________________________________________________ Today’s new page is on the song “Like a Breath of Springtime,” written by Joe Burke (music) and Al Dubin (words). The song was copyrighted on 20 May 1929 and used in the 1929 romance film _Hearts in Exile_, which is
considered a lost film. 1929 recordings include those by Roy Ingraham and his Orchestra, Harold “Scrappy” Lambert, Henry Busse and his Orchestra (vocal: Burt Lorin), Sam Lanin Orchestra (vocal: Marvin Young), Pete Woolery, and Adrian Schubert and his Salon Orchestra (vocal: Scrappy Lambert). “Burt Lorin” is a pseudonym for Scrappy Lambert, so Lambert is the vocalist on three of the seven recordings included in the page. Most, if not all, of these recordings were released under the copyright title “Like a Breath of Spring-Time.” I’ve modified the spelling of the last word of the title to conform with modern usage. Here’s a link to the new page: LIKE A BREATH OF SPRINGTIME A verse is sung in the 15 September 1929 Scrappy Lambert recording, as well as in the Pete Woolery and Sam Browne recordings, preceding the chorus. I’d been unable to find the full verse online, so I made the following transcription on 22 March 2019: Winter blows its breath on the low lands Over every green covered glen All in vain I’ve wandered the snow lands Looking for the sunshine again, then… Recordings included in the page:: * ROY INGRAHAM AND HIS ORCHESTRA — recorded on 5 August 1929 ; issued on the 78 rpm single Brunswick 4544,

In the Spring of the Year (m. Alec Wilder, w. Lee Kuhn) ~lyric transcribed by doc on 30 March 2019, from the 1951 Lee Kuhnrecording
In the spring of the yearAll of a sudden
The bloomin’ and buddin’ Get into your blood ‘n’ you sing Not a sigh do you hear in the springOf the year
In the spring of the yearSome hocus-pocus
Induces the crocus
To blossom and grow ’cause it’s spring There’s a magic that’s queer in the springOf the year
Birds are singier
Vines are clingier
Bells are ringier tooThe sun is sunnier
Bees are honeyer
Rabbits are bunnier too In the spring of the year Folks get an itchin’ For wooin’ and hitchin’ Bewitchin’ to beggar and king For the fling of the year in the springOf the year
Trees are sappier
Wings are flappier
Laughs are laughier tooThe moon is moonier
Tunes are tunier
Dreams are balloonier too(repeat section 4)

Identifying and dating the White Studio, NY, images, including arguments for the most likely year of creation:* W1
* 1902 — The image was used on the cover of the sheet music for “I’d like to be a Real Lady.”
The song was copyrighted in 1902,
and according to the Library of Congress, the sheet music
featuring image W1 was created and published in 1902. * W2a,b — Image 2b was added to my main Aida Overton Walker page in 2016. Image W2a is a new edit of that image created on 3 March2019.
* 1902 – The hairstyle or wig resembles that worn in image W1, which was used on the cover of the sheet music for “I’d like to bea Real Lady
,”
published in 1902.
* 1904 — The image was used on the cover of the sheet music for“Why Adam Sinned
,”
published in 1904.
* W3a, b — White Studio #84 — I recently found the image that I’ve labeled W3a at the Beinecke Digital Collections of Yale University’s Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library. * Image W3b (source unknown) is a smaller copy of the same photograph, which I’ve had on my main Aida Overton Walker pagesince June 2012.
* 1902 – The hairstyle or wig resembles that worn in image W1, which was created no later than 1902. * 1904 — The hairstyle or wig resembles that on the 1904 “WhyAdam Sinned
”
sheet music cover.
* W4
* 1902 – The hairstyle or wig resembles that worn in image W1, which was created no later than 1902. * 1904 — The dress, pearl necklace, hairstyle/wig, and earrings worn by Aida each appear to be the same worn in images W3a and W3b. The hairstyle seems to be the same as that in the photo used on the 1904 “Why Adam Sinned” sheet music cover. The hat/headdress appears to be the same as that worn in images W5 and W6. * W5 — White Studio #63 — source unknown; added to my main AidaOverton Walker page
in March 2013
* 1901 — The luxurious, ruffle adorned, white dress worn in images W5 and W6 somewhat resembles the dress worn in the illustration on the cover of the sheet music for “Miss Hannah from Savannah,”
published in 1901.
* 1902 – The hairstyle or wig resembles that worn in image W1, which was created no later than 1902. * 1904 — The hairstyle seems to be the same as that in the photo used on the 1904 “Why Adam Sinned” sheet music cover. Also, the elaborately decorated hat or headdress seems to be the same one worn in image W4, which is one of the three “pearl necklace” photos (images W3a, W3b, W4, and W7), all of which I’ve tentatively dated 1904 because the hairstyle in each seems to the same as that in the photo used on the 1904 “Why Adam Sinned” sheet music cover. * W6 — White Studio #64 — I recently found this image, which I’ve labeled W6, at the Beinecke Digital Collections of Yale University’s Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library. * 1901-1904 — (See image W5) * W7 — This image is an edit by me of an image found in the Flickr photo stream of Bluesy Dayeon about 1
March 2019.
* 1902 — The hat looks like it might be the same one worn in image W1, which was created no later than 1902, and the hairstyle/wig also resembles that worn in image W1. * 1904 — The hairstyle or wig appears to be the same as that in images W2-W6, which may have been created in 1904. * W8a,b,c,d — Images W8a,b, and d are my own edits of images recently found in Yale University’s Beinecke Digital Collections.
* 1907 – One of the two inscribed photos in the cardboard photo holders is dated 1907, the other 1908. I’m guessing that the photo was taken around 1907. It certainly was no later than that year. * W8a – inscribed “To Mr. & Mrs. Holt with love, Aida Overton Walker 1907.” * W8b – inscribed “Yours from Bandana Land Aida Overton Walker1908.”
* W8c – uninscribed edit from unknown source, posted on my mainAOW page years ago
* W8d – evidently cropped from the image used for W8a * W9a,b — Image 9a was recently found in the NYPL DigitalCollections
,
where it is dated 1911. Image 9b is an edit by me of that image, made by simply removing the brown tint. * 1908 — In the article “Black _Salome_: Exoticism, Dance and Racial Myths,” by David Krasner, which appears as chapter 10 (in part III) of the book African American Performance and Theater History: A Critical Reader , edited by Harry J. Elam, Jr., David Krasner (2001), pp. 192ff., on pp. 203-205, the author claims that what I’ve labeled image W9 shows Overton Walker in the costume that she wore in the Salome dance that she performed with Bert Williams in the 1908 musical revue _Bandanna Land_, and that for her more modern interpretation of the dance in 1912, she wore a loose-fitting gown, similar to those commonly worn by Isadora Duncan. If Krasner is correct in dating image W9 1908, then image W10 is alsofrom 1908.
* The biography of Ada Overton Walker in the online Performing Arts Encyclopedia of the Library of Congresssays:
* In 1908 Overton Walker was featured in Williams and Walker’s Bandanna Land, and her dancing continued to draw attention for its gracefulness. Soon after Bandanna Land opened, a new solo, “he Dancing of Salome,” was added for her. * This explains why IBDb does not list that number among the openingnight songs
of _Bandanna Land_
, which
had a run of 89 performances on Broadway at the Majestic Theatre from 2/03/1908 to 4/18/1908. * The book _Incidental and Dance Music in the American Theatre from 1786 to 1923 Volume 1_ by John Franceschina (2017?), on p. 1907,
says that the music for the _Bandanna Land_ number “The Dancing of Salome” was composed and arranged by Joe Jordan.
* The Wikipedia page on Joe Jordansays: “In New
York, Jordan wrote a couple of songs for Ada Overton Walker, first
“Salome’s Dance” and then in 1909 “That Teasin’ Rag”.” * 1911 — The date 1911 attached to image 9a at the New York Public Library Digital Collectionsmay be incorrect.
* 1912 — Overton Walker performed her latest interpretation of the dance of Salome at the Paradise Roof Garden of Hammerstein’s Victoria Theatre in a production that opened in August 1912. * W10a,b,c — I’ve had these images, source unknown, in my main AOW page since 2012, though a couple of them were updated in 2017. * 1908 — See the explanation regarding this date for image W9. * 1910 — The date 1910 attached to the image at NYPL DigitalCollections
may be incorrect.
* 1912 — Overton Walker performed her latest interpretation of the dance of Salome at the Paradise Roof Garden of Hammerstein’s Victoria Theatre in a production that opened in August 1912. _________________________________________Selected reference
