The Era 1909 [ SONGS, WRITERS,AND SINGERS] October 9, 1909 Mr. Mark Sheridan has in study a new patter song entitled “ Who’s who?” by Wilfred Chandler and Gilbert Wells. Other recent numbers from the pen of Mr. Chandler have been acquired by Miss Daisy James, Miss Gladys Huxley, and Miss Queenie Finnis. October 30, 1909 Mr. Mark Sheridan, the “ lion of comedians, “ scored an unparalleled success with his new song, “ Don’t take me home,” at the Canterbury on Monday. The audience joined in the rousing and catchy refrain as one man. Never has a chorus been sung so loudly as was this number at this popular house of entertainment. Mr. Sheridan is most enthusiastic about its instantaneous success and strongly advises all artists engaged for pantomime to write immediately to the publishers, Messrs. Francis and Day and Hunter, and secure this absolute certain success. November 6. 1909 At the Oxford, as at the Tivoli, Mark Sheridan, the ever-popular comedian with the style that is all his own, has created a furore with his song “ Don’t take me home.” This number , which has a very catchy refrain and tricky line in the middle of the chorus, which the audience must take up, has already spread round London like wildfire. Needless to say, Mr. Sheridan, who knows how to sing a chorus song, gives it to his audience in such manner that it is irresistible. The audience in pit ,circle, stalls and boxes all joined in the chorus, and the applause that greeted him at the finish of his performance was, indeed, flattering. Messrs. Francis and Day are the publishers. December 18, 1909 Mr. Mark Sheridan’s great music-hall triumph, “ I do like to be beside the seaside ,” by J.Glover-Kind, has proved the biggest comedy chorus song in Glasgow, and evokes plaudits loud and long. Principal boys all over the country are applying to Feldman’s for permissions and band parts. December 25, 1909 The volatile Mark Sheridan has published with Mr. David Day’s firm his song, entitled “ I tell you you don’t know you’re alive,” by R.P. Weston, and another named “ Top hat everytime, “ by J.P. Harrington, E.W.Rogers, and Charles Collins. |
