ARTIST:  Bruz Fletcher (2 78s)

LABEL:  Liberty Music Shop L-159 and L-160

CONDITION:  EE-

DESCRIPTION:  Two 78s by the gay cabaret artist Bruz Fletcher who was popular in cafe society in the 1930s.  If you like Noel Coward, Beatrice Lillie or Dwight Fiske, you should familiarize yourself with Bruz,  who songs are witty, campy, and rich with suggestive double entendre.  He only recently seems to be getting the recognition he deserves thanks to researchers like Tyler Alpern   (see tyleralpern.com/bruz.html).  It's a fascinating and tragic story.  Bruz came from a privileged background, but his close relatives seemed to make suicide a family pursuit, and he finally took his own life in 1941.  The discs are EE- with light scuffing.
