Confirmed by 5/24/27 copyright reg. andVictor label, which has his name in full.Scatter-Brain (Johnny Burke–FrankieMasters–Kahn Keene–Carl Bean)Humphrey Lyttelton Rhythmakers 1111Hmmm. 1111 had Scatterbrain by Keane-Bean-Masters-Burke. Don’t know where wegot their first names, but they seem to becorrect. But ASM (and online databases)shows us that it’s Scatter-Brain (cover andcopyright page), and the credits are w. JohnnyBurke/m. Keene-Bean and Frankie Masters.Which matches the odd copyright entry:Scatter-brain ; lyric Johnny Burke, mKeene-Bean & Frankie Masters. © Sept. 19,1939; E pub. 79790; Bregman, Vocco &Conn, inc., New York.So I ask again, where’d I get the first names?And why didn’t I document it?Well, elsewhere in 1939 book we find thatFrankie Masters wrote “Lost in a Dream” withMitchell Parish and Carl Bean.Several Keenes in book, but none looks likely.And this is a sort of a clue:Whisper you care; w Jack Lawrence, melodyKeene Bean & Frankie Masters. © 1 c. Feb.6, 1940; E unp. 213414 ; Robbins musicCorp., New York.And thenCharming little faker; w Johnny Burke, mKeene-Bean & Frankie Masters. © 1 c. Feb.28, 1940; E unp. 216430; Bregman, Vocco &Conn, inc., New York.But look at this:Key to my heart, if you will marry me; w & mFrankie Masters, Kahn Keene & Fay Boswell.© Feb. 29, 1940; E pub. 84032; Famousmusic Corp., New York.Looks like I did this the hard way: Any numberof online sites break out the names as theypresent the lyrics or try to sell modern digital(Kindle!) versions of the sheet music.Schlafe, mein Prinzchen [Wiegenlied](Bernhard Flies–Friedrich WilhelmGotter)Red Rose Ragtime Band 1412
