Legendary African-American vaudeville star Bert Williams made some of the most notable recordings of his career during the last three years of his life. From Oh! Lawdy in 1919 and ending with Not Lately—a song recorded eight days before his death in 1922. These recordings range from the Prohibition songs; Ten Little Bottles, The Moon Shines on the Moonshine, to comic numbers Eve Cost Adam Just One Bone, You'll Never Need a Doctor No More. Bert Williams: His Final Releases, 1919-1922 is the only commercial CD release that gives you all 24 of Bert Williams' final releases—and in the order they were recorded. The package includes a 16-page booklet discussing the last three years of Williams' life, his stage career, & themes common in some of his later works. Williams was unable to make the transition to other mediums as successfully as his contemporaries George Burns & Gracie Allen, and W.C. Fields who said: “Bert Williams is the funniest man I ever Saw—the saddest man I ever knew.” BERT WILLIAMS Final Releases 1919-1922 CD Tracks:Oh!
