The cover image is striking in its marriage of French and British-American text and iconography."},{"label":"Historical Note","value":["“Jack Frost” was the name used by Harold G. Frost for lighter numbers and novelties. McKinley Music Co. is listed as “owners” of Frank K. Root \u0026 Co. on the cover and appears as publisher on the back cover.","The song was advertised from August 1917 through March 1918, but there was evidently only one printing. ","There is one recording (Pathé 6463), made in Paris in December 1918 by L’Orchestre Scrap Iron Jazzerinos."]},{"label":"Musical Note","value":"A formally conventional march ballad (marked “marcia”), this title was classed as an applause number by The New York Clipper. The harmonies have chromatic inflections; in the chorus the first of each four-bar phrase is syncopated and rat-a-tat-tat interjections finish many phrases, but the rubato at the climax suggests a ballad. The whole is skilled but unexceptional. The first line of the verse explicitly evokes the 1915 hit spelling song, “M-O-T-H-E-R” (Theodore Morse and Howard Johnson), which this title clearly imitates."},{"label":"Repository","value":"Sousa Archives and Center for American Music"},{"label":"Rights","value":"No Copyright - United States"},{"label":"Rights Description","value":"This item is in the public domain."},{"label":"Back Cover Description","value":["Advertisement for “Late Popular Successes”.
