18 Edison Phonograph Monthly, Sept., 1910 554 My Heart Has Learned to Love You, Now Do Not Say Good-bye Joe Maxwell This number was written by the composer of the famous "Love Me and the World is Mine." To those who care for sentimental Records this song with its pleading melody and profession of enduring devotion will prove a most attractive number. Orchestra accompaniment. Words, Dave Reed; music, Ernest R. Ball; publishers, M. Witmark & Sons, New York City. 555 Coronation and Doxology Edison Mixed Quartet Sacred. Two numbers on one Record, — (a) Coronation ("All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name") and (b) Doxology ("Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow"). This Record should find its way into every home. Organ accompaniment. 556 The Fairest Rose Waltz Charles Daab Xylophone solo. We have no hesitation in pronouncing this the most superb Record of its kind ever produced. It is a distinct tribute to the skill of our Recording experts. The selection is a bewitching waltz played as only this master of the xylophone can play it. Orchestra accompaniment. Composer, H. Englemann; publishers, Brehm Bros., Erie, Pa. 557 My Old Lady Will Oakland Counter-tenor solo. The title of the selection is the affectionate term in which the singer refers to his mother, to whose memory he pays a glowing tribute. The sentiment of the song is inspiring, the melody graceful and flowing and Mr. Oakland in splendid voice. Orchestra accompaniment. Words, Vincent P. Bryan; music, Gus Edwards. 558 Shipwreck and Rescue — Descriptive Peerless Quartet A descriptive Record, by male voices, reproducing with startling realism all the terrors of a storm at sea and the thrill of a subsequent rescue by the life-saving crew. Scene 1. Homeward bound, captain, crew and passengers rejoicing — Song, "Home Again" — 8 bells. Scene 2. In the teeth of a nor'easter — "All hands furl sail!" — Gale increases in fury — "All Hands to quarters!" — Look-out cry, "Land Ho!" — "Hard up with that helm, we're driving on the rocks!" — Terrific crash — "Too late, we're on the rocks!" — Ship springs leak — "Man the pumps!" — "No use, Captain, the ship is sinking!" — "Man the life-boats! Now then, men, remember it's the women first! I'll shoot the first man who puts a foot in those boats!" Scene 3. A rocket from the shore — "We're near the Good Hope Live-Saving Station!" — The signal for help, "Life boat, ahoy!" — The answering cheer — Song of the life-boat crew as they pull to the rescue — Finale. Author, Campbell. 559 The Enterpriser March New York Military Band A brilliant and spirited military march by a popular writer — the kind that stirs the pulse of the listener and drives dull care away. Very popular now as a two-step number. Composer, J. Bodewalt Lampe ; publishers, Jerome H. Remick & Co., New York City. Edison Standard Records for November, 1910 LIST: U. S., 35c; CANADA, 40c. 10436 Merry Maiden March New York Military Band This number possesses all the elements that go to constitute a popular Record — a brisk air, excellent volume and a finished performance. It should be a good seller. Composer, Claude d'Albert; publisher, F. Smith, New York City. 10437 Nix on the Glow-Worm, Lena Billy Murray From the "Follies of 1910." The manner in which Lena Strauss demoralized a boardinghouse by "murdering" the "Glow-Worm" on her concertina is told by Billy Murra}' in his inimitable way in this clever and decidedly tuneful comic song, the chorus of which is constructed on the theme of the popular "Glow-Worm." Orchestra accompaniment. Words, Ballard Macdonald ; music, Harry Carroll; publishers, Joseph W. Stern & Co., New York City. 10438 That Beautiful Rag Stella Mayhew and Billie Taylor In securing this clever pair exclusively for Edison Records we enlisted the services of two of the most versatile and popular artists of the musical comedy and vaudeville stage. They were easily the "stars" of last season's big success, "The Jolly Bachelors." The Record, a catchy, melodious "rag" with a bit of comedy interwoven, will give an idea of their style and what may be expected of them in future numbers. Orchestra accompaniment. Words, Irving Berlin; music, Ted Snyder; publishers, Ted Snyder Co., New York City. 10439 I Wonder How the Old Folks Are at Home Will Oakland Counter-tenor solo. A wanderer's longing for the scenes of his childhood and the aged parents waiting and watching and praying for his return is the pathetic theme which is given a pretty, appealing musical setting. Orchestra accompaniment. *Words, Herbert S. Lambert; music, F. W. Vandersloot; publishers, Vandersloot Music Publishing Co., Williamsport, Pa. (Always specify on your orders whether you want Atnberol or Standard Records.)
