The first comprehensive guide to pre-1934 female popular vocal
recordings sung in English—from around the world and including
all styles—this discographical study includes solos, duets,
trios, and quartets composed by the great songwriters of the early
1900s (from Irving Berlin to Victor Young). The majority of the
listings includes material that has not been previously published,
and a large number of entries profile such prolific artists as
Helen Clark and Gladys Rice, who are not in previous discographies.
A special feature includes data on sound-on-disc recording made for
early talking-picture musical shorts (especially by Vitaphone) that
is not documented elsewhere. A comprehensive title index includes
composer credits for the majority of the titles listed. The first

records documented in this volume are by the artists who introduced
these songs at this time or who performed them in the original
productions of the shows or movies for which they were written. The
singing styles include those of cabaret performers, music-hall and
vaudeville acts. Songs for the stage, screen, and radio are also
included.
