Must go with copyright reg. and some of theearly labels for Wailin’, but how to treatDeCimber/De Cimber? He was J. V.DeCimber on the copyright reg. of GoodFeelin’ Blues, but now he’s JocipiDe Cimber—and OOPS, both are in the 1929book. He’s listed in the Index twice, first as J.V. DeCimber and then right below that asJocipi De Cimber. Talk about a coin toss!(For what it’s worth, he had two titles as J. V.,one as Jocipi.)I found him as J. V. DeCimber on a 1926 sheetfor “Night,” also with Ted Lewis. But then J. V.De Cimber in 1921 on “Old FashionedSweetheart,” “Phi Gamma Sweetheart” in1933. Then he pops up other places asJoseph De Cimber, Joe di Cimber. And BillHaesler dug him up in a Missouri librariesdatabase indexing this record as JosephValentino De Cimber.It’s a damned tossup, but I guess what we hadbefore, J. V. DeCimber, is as good asanything, especially since Haesler added theZack White Gennett label confirming it.Wait for the Happy Ending(Jack Yellen–Milton Ager)San Francisco Starlight Orchestra 1334Rec.
