OhDannyBoy's Profile

OhDannyBoy's real name is Rich Beil. Rich is 60 years old, is located in USA and has been a SingSnap member since March 13, 2009. So far he has made a total of 12 recordings.

I am a LtColonel, retired from the U.S. Marines. I live in Central Texas and am currently an over-the-road trucker, so I only get about 4 days a month at home to sing and record. My "passion" is the music of what was called Tin Pan Alley, popular tunes from the period 1900-1935. I hold a Masters degree in History and am something of an amateur musicologist. My specialty is the "Lost Verses" of Tin Pan Alley, songs that had the original verses "dropped" from later performances and that most people only recognize by their chorus. For a bit of the history of why this came about, please read my article at Parlorsongs.com:
