Spreadin' Rhythm Around: Black Popular Songwriters,1880-1930 is a
classic work on a little-studied subject in American music history:
the contribution of African-American songwriters to the world of
popular song. Hailed by Publishers Weekly as "thoroughly researched
and entertainingly written," this work documents the careers of
songwriters like James A. Bland ("Carry Me Back to Ole Virginny"),
Bert Williams ("Nobody"), W. C. Handy ("St. Louis Blues"), Noble
Sissle, Eubie Blake ("I'm Just Wild About Harry"), and many more.
Richly illustrated with rare photographs from sheet music,
newspapers, and other unique sources, the book documents an entire
era of performance when black singers, dancers, and actors were
active on the New York stage. In sheer depth of research, new
information, and full coverage, Spreadin' Rhythm Around offers a
comprehensive picture of the contributions of black musicians to
American popular song. For anyone interested in the history of
jazz, pop song, or Broadway, this book will be a revelation.
