Hi MMDers, There are now over 60 Karaoke files of piano roll Karaoke
(MIDI) files with lyrics available on Richard Stibbon's Karaoke Page,
http://www.stibbons.com/karaoke.html
A few files are incomplete, lyric-wise, as noted at the site. I'm
currently searching for the complete roll lyrics for "Button Up Your
Overcoat", from "Follow Through" by Buddy DeSylva-Lew Brown-Ray
Henderson. Played by Howard Lutter. Welte #Y-75433.
I have the basic familiar chorus, but there are apparently a couple of
verses on the roll I have never heard that are yet to come to light.
Hopefully some kind and helpful fellow MMDer will be able to provide
same so that I may update the version at the site. :o)
And another currently in the pipeline:
THE LOVE NEST -- QRS 1165
From the George M. Cohen musical "Mary" (1920)
by Louis A. Hirsch - Otto A. Harbach
Played by Victor Arden and Phil Ohman 1920 (scan by Terry Smythe)
(Theme song from the George Burns & Gracie Allen Show)
Just a love nest, cozy and warm,
Like a dove breast, down on the farm,
A veranda with some sort of clinging vine,
Then a kitchen where some rambler roses twine;
In a small room, tea set of blue,
There's the ball room, dream room for two,
Better than a palace with a gilded dome,
Is the love nest you can call home!
There must be more lyrics on the roll in the way of an intro and
a verse. Thanks in advance.
