No mention of anything like Victory at Sea in Bastin's bio of Davis.

I haven't checked it on the Blue Pages, but isn't this "High In-Fidelity" label a Joe Davis production (like "Music For Half Assed Friends")? Whether it is or not, it reminds me to mention that a full biography of Davis is due for publication in August. Written by Kip Lornell, a thorough and reliable researcher, and Bruce Bastin, whose Interstate Music reissued quite a few things from the Davis holdings in the 80's and 90's. It'll probably be as much of a definitive Joe Davis resource as we'll ever get.

From what I've learned from this list THE GOOD SHIP LOLLIPOP was an airplane! And SPLISH SPLASH was about a bathtub! SHOWBOAT was a river boat and besides is not a song anyway unless you count the overture! And how did LUSH LIFE get in there? The producers should have consulted us for examples of "sea" songs. We could have given them dozens of appropriate songs to choose from, especially since they didn't worry about paying royalties at all on a cardboard insert.RayK>From: Randy WattsThey were listed a little further down the page.RandySonglist: good ship lollipop / lush life / my bonnie lies over the ocean / the fleets in / cruising down the river / anchors away / blow the man down / showbaot / the devil and the deep blue sea / splish, splash / I cover the waterfront / beyond the sea_______________________________________________78-L mailing list78-L at klickitat.78online.comhttp://klickitat.78online.com/mailman/listinfo/78-l_______________________________________________78-L mailing list78-L at klickitat.78online.comhttp://klickitat.78online.com/mailman/listinfo/78-l
