One of the greatest stride players of all time💋He composed many songs that whyt people stole and put their names on it. He did write "I can't give you anything but love" which was used in "Bringing up Baby" with Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn. And he wrote "Sunny Side of the Street"

The music that's playing in the background of this video is sublime. Who's the composer?

It seems entertainment has always been dangerous because they mostly own and run it for personal gain still to this day. Writers get nothing, performers get enough to have to keep performing like a whale. All the owners didn't create but they own the copyrights. How did artist do this to themselves by being so hippy saying things like it is just creative expression. Targets for exploitation.

Al Capone, if alive, would make a great Vice President for Trump. They have the same ethics and political philosophy. And the same respect for US Law. And besides, Capone is a lot healthier and has about twice Trump’s IQ. I can see that poster TRUMP/CAPONE - MAGA.
