Byron Gay, writer of the "Vamp," "Oh,"
"Sand Dunes," and other successes, is the author
of the song entitled "Murder," which is being
published by Leo Feist, Inc. The title page of
the number, which has just been placed in our
hands, states:
"Murder" committed by Byron Gay, also
guilty of the "Vamp," "Oh," "Sand Dunes," etc.
A recent description of this number says:
"It is an original conception of a thought
which has been in the minds of a great many
people who have listened to jazz bands, the idea
being to tell in a song how a jazz band can mur-
der a good tune; as one line of the song ex-
presses it, 'With villainous glee, they go on a
spree, then they ruin, with their blue-in', some
good melody.' In another line he says, 'It's mur-
der, it's murder, it's wrong, all wrong, what they
do to a wonderful song.' "
In addition "Murder" has a melody which is
looked forward to as one of the dancing sensa-
tions of the season.
