Product Details

Product Description

In the early days of the twentieth century, the popularity of minstrel shows inspired white performers to don blackface and perform "coon songs." The most popular of such acts was Al Jolson, famous for singing "Mammy." Al Jolson was the most celebrated white popular singer before Frank Sinatra, and he starred in the first "talkie" (motion picture with sound).

That's perfectly awful, but I came across a coon song that I thought had a great tune, and my arrangement worked out fine. Unfortunately, its title is Coon! Coon! Coon!  If you are offended by that, be advised that the original song was written by an African American, and the words are a lament against bigotry.
