Description: All recordings are from the original source material and digitally re-mastered to reduce surface noise. The Revelers (circa 1928) Frankiln Baur (seated left) - Lewis James (seated middle) - Elliot Shaw (standing rear) - Winfred Glenn (standing right) - Frank Black (seated piano) The Revelers were an American quartet (four close harmony singers) plus a pianist. They were popular in the late 1920s and early 1930s on phonograph records, radio and vaudeville. Their recordings of Dinah, Old Man River, Blue Room, The Birth of the Blues, and many more, became popular in the United States and then Europe in the late 1920s. In August 1929, they appeared in the Netherlands. All of the members had recorded individually or in various combinations. The quartet, organized in 1918, performed under the name The Shannon Four before changing their name to The Revelers in 1925. The original Revelers were tenors Franklyn Baur and Lewis James, baritone Elliot Shaw, bass Wilfred Glenn, and pianist Ed Smalle. Smalle was replaced by Frank Black in 1926. Franklin Baur left the group in 1927 and was replaced by James Melton. Radio appearances continued into the 1940's. Their harmonies are jazz oriented and very creative for the period. This CD features some of their most popular recordings.
