  • HISTORY of BARBERSHOP Compiled by David Wright
    HISTORY OF BARBERSHOP compiled by David Wright Lesson 4: REVIVAL Music of the thirties. By the late thirties, the kinds of songs that were woodshed had become a thing of the past. Harmonies had become even more sophisticated with the advent of the big band sound, in which avoidance of "obvious" chording prevailed. The major chord was replaced by the sixth, major seventh, or even more obscure substitutes; the dominant was replaced by minor seventh, diminished, or tritone substitute. We should note that the old style didn't vanish altogether. In certain haunts one could still hear the happy sound of the old ragtime style of earlier times, which characterized the "barbershop" era. One musician who thrived on this music into the forties was the great Thomas E. ("Fats") Waller, who composed, sang, and played stride piano in the old style. Although the songs he wrote himself show some of the "swing" influences of the thirties ("Honeysuckle Rose" (1929), "Ain't Misbehavin'" (1929)), many of the songs he popularized were of the style of the twenties, like "It's A Sin To Tell A Lie" (1936) and "(Oh Susanna) Dust Off That Old Piano" (1934). One of his best recordings was "Dinah," recorded in 1935. (In 1978 the musical revue "Ain't Misbehavin'" appeared on Broadway, featuring the music of Fats Waller.) Owen C. Cash. Owen Clifton Cash, born 1892, was a man who had been profoundly influenced by the musical customs of the early 1900's, the tradition of singing popular music with woodshedded harmony. He was the son of a Baptist minister, who moved the family westward by wagon from northern Missouri (where Cash was born) to the town of Keytesville in Cherokee Indian Territory, later to become part of Oklahoma.
