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]

I used to work in the shop next door when it was a magazine stall around 1972...think it became the Electric shop a few years later....I moved around the corner to W. Robinsons Book Shop for around 7 years.....would be nice to see some of the old staff there like Billy, Mr Moore, Mr Rennie & Audrey (She was the grand Daughter of Stan Laurel ) plus a few more who's names iv forgot through time...I know Jimmy Forsythe took a few...
