Bernard (LOC)

  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    Alfred A. "Al" Bernard (1888-1949) was an American vaudeville singer, known as "The Boy From Dixie", who was most popular during the 1910s through early 1930s. Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, Bernard became a blackface singer in minstrel shows before starting his recording career around 1916.   Bernard composed and recorded more than 100 songs in the first three decades of the 20th century.   He was one of the first white singers to record blues songs.   W. C. Handy credited Bernard with helping his own career by recording a number of his songs, notably "St. Louis Blues".  Bernard recorded the song for nine different record labels, the most successful being what Handy called "the sensational Victor recording in which he sang with the Dixieland Jazz Band". For a brief period in the early 20's Bernard was teamed with Jimmy Durante and wrote the lyrics for "Papa String Bean" for Durante.  He teamed up with the ragtime composer J. Russell Robinson in a vaudeville team called the Dixie Stars and they recorded songs together for a number of famous labels.  Bernard usually sang while Robinson played the piano and added some vocals. Together they composed a number of hit songs including "Blue Eyed Sally" and "Let Me Be The First To Kiss You Good Morning".   Excerpted – [1] [2]

    She was a very large ship in 1912, but would look small parked beside a 21st Centurhy cruise ship or oil tanker. I heard a story that might be true. They say that one of the four stacks was a dummy added for looks. I don't know which one, but I would thing the first or last one. Pictures sometimes show smoke from all four. I think the smoke coming from number one looks fake in this picture. Am I right?

    My interest has been piqued. I think a visit to the Titanic website might be in order!

    Howard33 I believe it was the fourth funnel that was the fake, not the first.

    4th funnel is the dummy funnel for me.....
