Subject: RE: Abdul Abulbul Amir link?
Percy French was the composer - see James S Fuld: |The book of world-famous music - fourth ed (Dover Publications Inc, New York, 1995)

The reference to Shay is to Frank Shay: My Pious Friends and Drunken Companions and More Pious Friends and Drunken Companions (Dover Publications, Inc, New York, 1961 - originally published separately by the MacAuley Company in 1927 and 1928 respectively)

Since Dover books generally remain in print this ought to be obtainable.
