This is my blog where I write about music, jewelry, and myself. Vaudeville, burlesque, blues, jazz, songs about baltimore, novelties, and whatever else I feel like posting. Mostly from my own LPs and 78s. Subscribe via any of the methods in the right-hand column. Please do not link directly to the mp3 files.

Baltimore Society Orchestra
Headin' For Baltimore
(1922)









I wonder if this song was entitled after selecting a phrase from a bag. Or maybe just a city name from a bag. Or maybe there's a version with lyrics that I haven't heard.
Anyway whatever.
According to this site, "the Dixie Daisies was a recording pseudonym used by Cameo Records and its subsidiary label Romeo for many Sam Lanin recordings." You may recall Sam Lanin from this other unicornmeat post.

Labels: baltimore, jazz era
