His unique blend of music and comedy captivated audiences, and "Shurr-up" was one of his most famous numbers. The song's catchy melody and Robey's engaging performance style made it a hit among music lovers. The photograph not only captures the essence of Robey's stage presence but also highlights the significance of sheet music and music publications during this era. The Feldman's Song Annual with Tonic Sol-fa setting played a crucial role in the dissemination of popular music and allowed individuals to connect with their favorite performers in a more personal way.
