So, I have gone looking (still online) for any way to tie this lyric down. Here's what I find: Let's All Go To The Music Hall words: Ralph Butler & Harry Tilsley music: Horatio Nicholls, [who is also known as Lawrence Wright] first copyright 1934, renewed 1961 from the Renewal Registrations, Library of Congress Catalog of Copyright Entries Third Series Volume 15, Part 5, no. 2 Washington: 1962 Elsewhere it is stated that Bobbie Comber recorded the song. Not having luck finding the score online though. |
