EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage music cover for "Moonglow" featuring Valaida in Lew Leslie's Blackbirds of 1934 is a true gem from the 1930s. The striking black, white, and red color scheme immediately catches the eye, while the stars scattered across the design add a touch of glamour and sophistication. The song itself, written by Will Hudson, Eddie de Lange, and Irving Mills, is brought to life through Valaida's powerful vocals. Her performance in Blackbirds of 1934 must have been truly mesmerizing if this sheet music cover is anything to go by. Priced at just sixpence (or 6d), this piece would have been accessible to many during its time. It's amazing to think that something so beautifully designed and culturally significant could be purchased for such a small amount. As you gaze upon this print, you can almost hear the sounds of jazz and swing emanating from it. The energy and spirit of the era are encapsulated within these pages, transporting you back to a time when music was not just entertainment but an experience. Terry Parker has captured a moment in musical history with this photograph, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry of the performers and composers involved in creating "Moonglow," as well as the visual aesthetic of its accompanying sheet music cover.
