well I'm not dsylexic - so I believe I typed "piles" - but if my increasingly bad finger control on any sort of keyboard is a reliable measure of what I actually typed - it could even have been "slipe" - fi uoy ees hwta I mnea.

That wasn't Welsh, by the way!

Incidentally, since I'm here for a rare visit - does anyone have any "Blind Tom" scores, sheets or transcriptions ?

Diolch (this is Welsh)

To a certain member,

I tried to pm several times to say thankyou, but it seems nothing was sent. I'm resorting to saying ty here instead. Most grateful,
you know who you are.

Here's a B&W version (except for cover) I made of Billy Mayerl's Piano Exaggerations. The original was scanned by The National Library of Australia.

Thank you Jim - great scan.
The guy on the cover can't be playing 'Loose Elbows',
since he doesn't appear to have any!

A scan of Fats Waller's Alligator Crawl has appeared on IMSLP. (Title/heading is misspelled.)

Hello to everyone,

while doing some research for the pianist Harry Sosnik, i'm wondering if there's someone out there
which has some music from this composer? (9 piano solos know and missing, watch the list)

Jim Faston was so kind to share Sosniks 1935 publication "Gayety" in the past.

what i have in my collection are the following piano solos:

Cinderella's Dream 1952
Concha De Amor 1952
Frivolity 1939
Joggin' Along 1952

if there would be interests i could share them here on the thread.

like you even know there is a Remick Music Co. series publishing 7 solos, three mentioned above, the other ones are:

Helter Skelter
Parade Of The Goblins
Puppet On A String
Runaway Doll

there exist other fine Novelties published by Robbins Music Co. (supposedly extremly rare?)

Rhythmic Fantasy ????
River Reverie 1936
Simplicity 1936
Tranquillitiy 1930
Vagabond Fingers 1935

Hope you can contribute something to my research and this fine Novelty composer.

Bye
Adrien
