With a Foreword by Thomas
Riis.
Late in his
life, composer J.
Rosamond Johnson (Lift
Ev'ry Voice and Sing)
submitted to his longtime
publisher, E.B. Marks, a
list of songs that would
comprise a volume of his
best early popular songs
written with his pre-1910
partner Bob Cole and his
brother, James Weldon
Johnson (Autobiography of
an Ex-Colored Man). That
list was never put into
print...until now.
Featuring an
introductionby Dr. Thomas
Riis (Just Before Jazz)
and several rare photos,
this new compilation is
the latest legacy
offering from the Marks
archive, which contains a
rich heritage of
turn-of-the-century
African-American, and
thus distinctly American,
pre-jazz-era popular
song. Includes: Ain't Dat
