In 1970 the Ontario government prepared a book of All Time and Old Time Favourites to be available to all Senior Citezen Homes, Clubs and Centers, and adult Charitable Institutions for use by the members, residents, auxiliaries and staff. But these contained only the words! In 1973 the Markhaven Committe produced a music book to go along with the word. The songs are pitched a little lower, in a key that is easier for seniors to sing, and tha arrangements are simple enough for most pianists to be able to sit down and play.

In 2013, at the age of sixty-nine, with some time on my hands, I decided to learn to play a musical instrument (again); this time, I decided on the harmonica. Thank goodness that I did. I have since learned the beauty and versatility of the harmonica. I started by buying a set of DVDs over the Internet and started my journey into the harmonica. At the end of the lessons on the DVDs, I met my first hurdle. Where do I go from here? I searched music stores and bookstores for books of songs in the key of C and of the kind of songs I wished to play (standards, classics, easy-listening)no luck there. With my limited computer knowledge, I turned to the Internet. I found hundreds of songs for the harmonica, with quite a few in the key of C, but not too many in the genre of choice. It took me quite a while to put together a number of songs in the key of C with tabs added, as I could not read music. I then practiced these twenty or so songs until I became proficient enough (and confident enough) to go busking. While busking, several people talked to me about their attempts to learn to play the harmonica and how they had given up. From these conversations, I discovered many people had experienced the same hurdles as myself. In order to help people to discover (or rediscover) just how easy it is to learn to play the harmonica, given the right tools at the right time of learning, I decided to publish this book. I am certain it will help you as much as it did me.

A comprehensive anthology bringing together more than one thousand of the best American and English song lyrics of the twentieth century; an extraordinary celebration of a unique art form and an indispensable reference work and history that celebrates one of the twentieth century’s most enduring and cherished legacies. Reading Lyrics begins with the first masters of the colloquial phrase, including George M. Cohan (“Give My Regards to Broadway”), P. G. Wodehouse (“Till the Clouds Roll By”), and Irving Berlin, whose versatility and career span the period from “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” to “Annie Get Your Gun” and beyond. The Broadway musical emerges as a distinct dramatic form in the 1920s and 1930s, its evolution propelled by a trio of lyricists—Cole Porter, Ira Gershwin, and Lorenz Hart—whose explorations of the psychological and emotional nuances of falling in and out of love have lost none of their wit and sophistication. Their songs, including “Night and Day,” “The Man I Love,” and “Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered,” have become standards performed and recorded by generation after generation of singers. The lure of Broadway and Hollywood and the performing genius of such artists as Al Jolson, Fred Astaire, Ethel Waters, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, and Ethel Merman inspired a remarkable array of talented writers, including Dorothy Fields (“A Fine Romance,” “I Can’t Give You Anything but Love”), Frank Loesser (“Guys and Dolls”), Oscar Hammerstein II (from the groundbreaking “Show Boat” of 1927 through his extraordinary collaboration with Richard Rodgers), Johnny Mercer, Yip Harburg, Andy Razaf, Noël Coward, and Stephen Sondheim. Reading Lyrics also celebrates the work of dozens of superb craftsmen whose songs remain known, but who today are themselves less known—writers like Haven Gillespie (whose “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town” may be the most widely recorded song of its era); Herman Hupfeld (not only the composer/lyricist of “As Time Goes By” but also of “Are You Makin’ Any Money?” and “When Yuba Plays the Rumba on the Tuba”); the great light versifier Ogden Nash (“Speak Low,” “I’m a Stranger Here Myself,” and, yes, “The Sea-Gull and the Ea-Gull”); Don Raye (“Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” “Mister Five by Five,” and, of course, “Milkman, Keep Those Bottles Quiet”); Bobby Troup (“Route 66”); Billy Strayhorn (not only for the omnipresent “Lush Life” but for “Something to Live For” and “A Lonely Coed”); Peggy Lee (not only a superb singer but also an original and appealing lyricist); and the unique Dave Frishberg (“I’m Hip,” “Peel Me a Grape,” “Van Lingo Mungo”). The lyricists are presented chronologically, each introduced by a succinct biography and the incisive commentary of Robert Gottlieb and Robert Kimball.
