Arthur Collins - I Was Roaming Along

Review by Yogi

Arthur Collins' album, I Was Roaming Along, is a delightful collection of vintage tracks that takes the listener back to a bygone era. The album features Collins' signature baritone voice, which is perfectly suited for the old-timey tunes that make up the majority of the record.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home," which is a classic jazz standard that Collins delivers with aplomb. His rendition of the song is both fun and infectious, and it's easy to imagine him performing it to a packed house in a smoky jazz club.

Another highlight of the album is "By the Light of the Silvery Moon," which is a beautiful ballad that showcases Collins' softer side. His voice is smooth and velvety, and it's clear that he has a deep appreciation for the genre.

About Arthur Collins

Born: February 7, 1864 Died: August 3, 1933 Baritone Arthur Collins deserves a title like Ragtime King since he made more discs with "rag" or "ragtime" in the title than any other singer, bringing the upbeat music into middle class parlors where the Victrola stood. He recorded on different occasions in the 1890s the Ernest Hogan song "All Coons Look Alike To Me," a song that is important since its 1896 sheet music has the first known use of "rag" as a musical term. Many of Collins' recordings are identified as a "coon song" or "darky song," which may be one reason scholars avoid crediting this white singer with popularizing ragtime.
