How popular was Irving Berlin and other 1940s American singers in Europe during and before WWII?
Cant say that Irving Berlin was a singer,the only recording I have of him singing one of his songs from WW1 called Oh how I hate to get up in the Morning and it ain’t good but he with Cole Porter were the most prolific song writers of all time, the talk about the Beatles but Irving Berlin composed and published twice as many as the Beatles. Look up on line a see a list of songs he wrote.Also the scores for many Broadway shows. He was known as the |King of Ragtime and although he did not invent Ragtime many of his songs are of that theme I treasure an old gramophone record Called Irving Berlins early ragtime. als a rendering of his song,Yiddle on your fiddle play some Ragtime ironically sung by G>H>Elliot known for singing in black face His billed name was G.H Elliot The Chocolate coloured **** the word cannot be typed as it is racist.
